I have a contract. I signed it last week. A big fat shiny contract gone back in the mail with my big fat shiny scrawl on the bottom. Yipee!!
And it's 41 000 words... which means I'm a published author. RWAus's definition is over 40K, so I scraped in :)
And the story - The Virginity Mission. Kind of nice to have a virginity story for my first publication, don't you think?
And what's more, it had been rejected many times before this acceptance. So that's a sign not only that my writing is improving, but the last couple of rejections I didn't change the story. So it shows the subjective nature of submissions.
If you don't get accepted once... don't give up!
And Ellie and Tink... I promised I'd make your names famous... here we go girls!
