Hopefully, all being well I am soon to be a published author! I have had confirmation that two of my pieces have made it into the University literary publication. Although all the submissions are all subject to the approval of the director of the Kingston University Press. But I'm happy. I was at the editorial meeting last night. Even though I am part of the editorial team, my work was chosen by others to be in. It's great as it means my peers like my work. I was so happy, it almost gave me a migraine. Honestly! I think now that my migraines are linked to emotional response. If I get hyper either through stress or elation, it seems to trigger them. I guess stranger things have happened. The solution I feel is meditation.
Also more good news. As I checked my email this morning, I got one from an online journal that I submitted a short story too - incidentally it was the same short story that I submitted to the University magazine - and they want to publish my story too! Only thing is only one publication can have it, so I need to choose. But it's great news, encouraging and reassuring. I'm going to have to think which one will be better for my career. It's a serious decision! :-)
