No, I'm not pregnant.
Well, I finally did it. After two months of going back and forth between "I should" and "I shouldn't", I just walked down to the post room and mailed off manuscripts to three magazines. (And now I'm ridiculously nervous; I have this terrible feeling that I left out something really important from my cover letter, or that I put lame posts in my portfolio.)
Anyway, thanks to my many friends who, all at the same time (oddly enough), suggested I try this.
I figure the worst they can say is "no" and not publish me, which really doesn't leave me any worse off than where I am now. (Which is that I'm not being published.)
Should something actually come of this bold venture on my part, I shall inform you all. But, as that's not likely to happen, content yourself with the knowledge that I tried.
I am.
