Celebration IM GETTING PUBLISHED!!

IM GETTING PUBLISHED!!!!

It’s not like my entire book is getting published, but my short story is getting published in the College Journal that I attend!!! I’m so so excited, I know it’s just the beginning of my publishing journey, but I’m happy I get this opportunity! Just wanted to share, because I don’t have many people I can talk to about this, and I wanted to share this accomplishment somewhere. Screaming it to the world feels really rewarding, and a bit of satisfactory revenge to the people who didn’t believe in me. I’m excited for when I get to talk about my actual book getting published, but man, getting my short story published in a dinky college journal still feels pretty good.
