#111. Get a book or story published

I'm so excited! Today, I received a long-awaited letter from the publishing company to which I submitted an entry for a contest they hold annually. The letter states that I've made it to the next round in a contest I entered and will be published. I've been dreaming of the day I'd be published and it's finally here. It was only a short story but it's one that really came from a place deep within. The story, "Drowning," will be published in the anthology "The Sun Shall Rise" in December. Hopefully my next publication will be a novel!
