I queried FAMA (Fish and Marine Aquarium) Magazine with my "Woes of an Aquarium Widow" article back in 2000. They accepted it in 2002, tentatively. No contract.

About 4 months ago they sent me a contract for the article. The article was finally published in the Sept 2006 issue. Now I'm waiting for the check to arrive.

I guess sometimes waiting is a good thing.

Good Lord...that has to be a record of some kind. CONGRATS! It's so great to see so many of our sistahs here getting published AND getting paid for their hard work. Is there a way we can read this article online?

Again, congrats!

JJ

I couldn't believe they got back to me at all. I'd long given up on them. But, I have an article tracker I use to keep track of everything I submit and sure enough, there were the dates.

I don't know if you can read it online next month. I'll check their site and see. They don't put all articles on their site and they do it after the current issue is well, no longer current. <GRIN>

Thanks for the congratulations. I appreciate it.
