A “real” writer

August 13, 2014 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

I received my first check for a freelance writing assignment this week and I’m just a wee bit excited about it. I’ve had things published in the past but this was the first time I got paid for it. I guess that means I really can call myself a writer. Right? Right. 
Here’s a picture of the article. You can read it on the Ada Hub website if you are so inclined. This is actually my second published article for the Hub and I have been asked to write additional articles.

Perhaps this was the kick in the pants I needed to actually pursue writing in a serious manner. Maybe I’ll even finish that novel I started so long ago.

      Thanks! I'm kind of excited. πŸ™‚ I had some articles published in a Canadian homeschooling magazine years ago and they had just agreed to start paying me for them when it folded.

    Congrats! I remember our first check for ADeadNew World. There's no reason to NOT write that novel. You can always self publish like we did and I bet it would be wonderful!
