Success Stories
We need your publication and/or writing success stories. These can be about a book traditionally or self-published, contest wins, blogs started or anniversary dates, short stories published, and more. Anything you see as a success in your writing life in the past 6 months--we want to hear about it, so we can publish it in our next newsletter.
Here are two examples we collected from Facebook and Twitter (which brings me to another point, if you aren't following us on those, you are missing out on opportunities!):
- Lauretha Ward signed a book contract with Mascot Books for release of a children’s book in 2017. She also released a new book in November 2016 titled, Resting On His Promises: I am Covered From A to Z, published by Life to Legacy. http://mindshapeup.com/resting-on-his-promises-i-am-covered-from-a-to-z
- Christine Rodriguez submitted her first story in 30 years to a contest. “It just felt wonderful to be writing again!” she said.

For the Friday Speak Out posts, please be sure that your submission is about women and *writing*--we've been receiving quite a few that don't include the writing part!
We especially love hearing from our our core audience--personal essays and humorous anecdotes are encouraged as well, as long as they provide something useful to our audience--including a good laugh! ;)
Great points, Marcia! Thanks!
