So technically I'm published. Well, not yet. I wrote a story, and some big awesome people chose to give me money so they can show it around.

Thats how it works, right?



I won a contest over at the maddeningly awesome site "Nanoism." All the stories are made for tweets. The contest was to write a serial, a 5-piece story about a life, all done in those 140-character bits. I said "Why not?" and typed a random story right into the browser window.

That was a long while ago. Today I got an email informing me that I'd won, that I get money for something I made, that my stuff would be on a website for all to see.



That was five minutes ago. I've only just stopped running screaming through my dorm hallway, trying to find anyone who is still awake to tell them.




Now I wish I hadn't just typed the darn thing straight into the browser. Can't remember what I wrote. But I know it was based off of "Crooked," and it goes through the whole life of that little girl. I remember that I loved it, but I can't remember what I wrote!



BUT IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR SOMEBODY, AND NOW I NEED TO GO START SCREAMING AGAIN. I love alla y'all, and I'm sorry I've been absent. I'll post again when they tell me my story is going up on the site.
