Yes, I realize that technically everytime I "publish post" I am a published writer but that's not what I mean!
A few weeks ago I submitted a writing sample to Examiner.com.
A few days later I got this...
Dear Babetta,It took my breath away to read!
Thanks for applying at Examiner.com! We have reviewed your information, and think you would make an excellent Orlando Liberal Christian Examiner (in our Religion & Spirituality channel).
Now I'm official and I published MY FIRST ARTICLE last night.
Writing it came easy and I swear when I hit the "publish" button, I squeeled and jumped out of my seat!
Hub looked at me with a raised eyebrow to which I exclaimed...
Okay now this one DOES feel fantastic
I told everyone I could think to share with RIGHT AWAY
I posted a link on Facebook, I sent emails and texts and messages
I guess I'm *gulp* PROUD of this one ;)
Nearest I can figure I feel really positive about this because it's another step in the direction I REALLY want to go with my life...
there's potential
there's hope
there's change
and I like hopey changey stuff
~grin~

Thanks Sarah!
This is what "High Five" feels like :)
Congratulations! What an exciting opportunity, and I really liked your article. One of the reasons I love and admire my pastor so much is because she is so accepting of everyone who walks through her door. Before communion she slows down and says" "Everyone is welcome at God's table." And she repeats that three times.
Very well done! :)
