Letter to the Editor

I have seen my name in print! And it feels wonderful! Okay, so I wrote a Letter to the Editor of my local newspaper and they printed it on February 10th in the Missourian, (for anyone who wants to see it, go to www.emissourian.com and search for the title, "Shades of Gray") but still, I now have a clip to show prospective agents and publishers! Baby steps here, folks. I won an honorable mention in a national short story contest a few years back and now this, so slowly I'm working my way into the writing world. Plus I am putting myself out there, expressing my opinion, making my mark on this society, and it really does feel wonderful to be true to yourself.
