Woman's World - 02/21/05 07:58 PM
Good morning all. I just got an email from Chick saying she has the latest Woman's World and that my article "Mammograms or, The Jaw of Life" is in it! YAHOOOOO...Now, I have to run out and...well first I have to change out of these pj's, then---oh what the hay...I'm running to the store and buying a copy. Hope you do too! If you like what you read, please drop WW's a line and tell them, want you?
Happy Off from work day!
JJ

Woohoo!! I had it on my calendar for tomorrow. A day early is a bonus! I plan on buying copies and bragging about my 'famous friend', too! Hey, I'd be running down to the store in my jammies, too, if I had something in Woman's World.

Very exciting news about your article being published in WW, JJ. Right on! Or should I say, "Write On!"
JJ, I'm so proud of you and all your accomplishments. You truly are a writing inspiration.
Here's a great big hug just for you!!

You all are sooo supportive. I don't know what other writers do when they need a lift. I come here.
I am certainly grateful they bought the article, and the pay was super, but I just got a copy and read it and couldn't believe how much they had chop, re-written, and cut out of the article. It certainly didn't resemble what they bought...but what the hay...I still get to add them to my portfolio, eh?
So onward! And to all my friends here, thank you so much for all the nice things you've said. I love you all!

Do you mind saying what they pay? If not, I understand.

Still beaming here, JJ.

JJ, how come they didn't send you a bonus copy? I can't wait to see what you wrote. Did the editors keep the "flavor" of your humor? congratulations! Lynn

Okay, I just got back from making a trip to Walgreen's to pick up my copy. Of course my husband yelled out a few items he needed, too, since I was 'already going out.'
I ran into a friend of mine just inside the front door, so I bragged about the reason I was there. You'd think I had the article published the way I went on!
Then when I got home, I showed it to my 24-yr.old daughter who was mighty impressed!
So frame a copy, and buy a few for your clips file, and celebrate! I am!!
