I said earlier that I was working on submitting my stories to different literature journals and today, I got a bite.
It's the first time I'll be getting a paid publication and that's really cool. I'm so glad I found this community that helped me feel confident enough to put my work out there.
I look forward to getting more of my work out there to corrupt the youth.
Holy shit, I think this is my most upbeared post. Thanks everybody! :sicko-wholesome:
Also, it's a sci-fi story about a future where body modifications are cheap and easy. I wanted to explore how even good technology can be bad in and inherently oppressive society.
Congratulations! How long/how many attempts did it take before you got a bite?
I did about forty or so story submissions, trying to do several a day. There are cool sites now where you can shotgun applications for free. Over the span of a few months.
