It's really in there...

I got my "author's copy" of the new Six Word Memoir book "It All Changed In An Instant" and mine is really in there!













So mine isn't in huge big print and got it's own page, but there it is on page 108 - center stage!

And some people wait years to get published!

I'm So Excited!

And I just can't hide it...

About a year and a half ago I read about Six Word Memoirs - small snippets of writing that describe a situation, a life, whatever - and wrote about it here ...And I wrote about it in my church newsletter and had people come up with their own six word memoirs. Mine was "Farm Girl, City Girl, Farm Girl" - which I submitted to the publisher Smith Magazine because they were putting together a new book called:


It All Changed in an Instant: More Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure

About 4 or 5 months ago I got an email saying if I was OK with it, they were considering my 6-W-M for their newest book and of course, I said "YES! Go for it!"

Today I got another email from Smith Magazine that my six words had indeed been chosen and the book is set for release on January 5th. I have been published - all six words!!

Ha, ha, ha! IS THAT COOL OR WHAT!?!?!?!?!?
