I am very excited to be able to tell you that I’M FINALLY
PUBLISHED! When I first started this blog I told you about all the projects I
am doing in order to accomplish my dreams. One of those dreams was to have a
poem or short story published. Since that blog I have been submitting work to
magazines, and despite a few rejections I persevered and I submitted my poem
‘Chocolate Temptation’.
After the submission it felt like forever waiting for a
response. About four weeks had passed without hearing anything and I started to
accept another rejection. I couldn’t believe the morning I received a message
from the editor of Graffiti Magazine saying they loved my poem and was going to
include it in their next issue. It made my day as it was completely unexpected.

Being published is another dream I was chasing that I have
caught, and I’m not stopping there. My next mission is to have a short story
published, I can’t wait for the day I see one of my stories in a magazine!
Perseverance and determination are definitely needed to
achieve your goals.
Don’t give up and keep chasing your dreams!
