I have been published in various magizines and publucations over the years. I have been published in the Ham Radio "QST", A defunct Color Computer Mag 'Rainbow", American Medical Association, Cardiovascular Review, NASA Tech Brief mag, and a host of other publucations. Then last friday I get my first issue of the "Mirror". The Mirror is the National mag for Tri-Ess. I'm sitting there reading various articles and turn the page, start reading a article and OMG

, Thats MY ARTICLE. One of my posting here on this and another forum is in the "Mirror". No matter how many articles I write and are published, I still get the OMG feeling when I see it in print. Usually I find out before hand that an article of mine is being published, but this time it was a total surprise.
I think a good part of the OMG feeling, is you have to reconize how many people submit articles to a National Publucation and they select yours to publish.
I also have to admit, that I did not even submit this one. One of my Tri-Ess sisters asked me if she could submit for me. I said, "Yes, go ahead". Not expcting that the very next issue, it would show up.

Congrats JoAnne.

I've been published in WordPerfect magazine. I don't think they publish it anymore, though.

Copngratulations, JoAnn, that speaks well for your talents!!! We are all proud of you!

I have been published as well, well not in writing, once in a while my picture shows up in the local post offices titled: "Have you seen this broad?" It is usually next to Jeannie's picture which says: "Don't wanta see this broad!"

Fame is so fleeting!

Congratulations again

Virginia

PS: for those who -- well -- it a joke!!!!

Wonderful, Jo Ann. I see one of our members is the cover girl on the new Mirror...and congrats to her also...hugs. A few years ago my friend had a story in the Mirror about our Disney trip...it was so neat to read it..so i know what you mean. Oh...and I had some dry technical aviation things published myself.......but still a charge to see what you write in a publication. So, save that issue...and I'm looking for your article later tonight. Would have read it earlier...but I'm a terrible housekeeper and misplaced the magazine...sigh.

Congratulations, Dallas! It's great being a member of this Forum and always get a sense of pleasure and delight when I read (in the Mirror) where a gal I've seen on the Forum is also published there. Have been very fortunate in that over the years I've had a number of articles published but the credit here goes to Barb Van Horn , our editor of the Wild Rose of the Chesapeake, who does the editing and publishing for us. There are a good number of unsung heroines out there supporting all of us. Congrats again!

LOL, SL
JoAnn, I just read your article and it was nice

Glad you enjoyed yourself, and isn't it amazing how most people just don't care? Of course you have to be careful where you go by yourself, but thats a common sense thing. Thanks for pointing it out to us...love to see one of our gals in print
