I am published! (sort of)

It's not a novel. It's not a novella. It's not a short story. It's not even fiction. But it's published!

I've been writing short articles on finance and technology for blog exchanges with my internship for a few weeks now, and it so happened that one of the blogs also did a monthly newspaper. Much to my surprise, my article was featured in their print run! Some of you may recall that I had an article published with an in-house work magazine a month or so ago, but this is a step up in my books.


Even though digital media is becoming the inevitable way forward, there's still a thrill in seeing you name in print. Let's hope these 500-word articles turn into 100,000 novels at some point in the near future!

Yup, that's me right there. You might not be able to see it, but it's there.
Don't forget that I'm giving away a copy of Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. Just take a look at my birthday giveaway post for more details. You can also read my review of Daughter of Smoke and Bone in case you're wondering if it's any good (it is).

  4. Wow cool! Plus publishers like new authors to have articles and short pieces published!

    I worked with one school for a week long enterprise project, where we taught students how to negotiate so they could negotiate when buying products at a market. Some of them really got into it and were SO charming, and some of them just didn't get it! It was really fun though :)
