Three of my essays are getting published and I was offered a job to tutor new students
I'm getting published in a college manual and my instructors believe I should start submitting my writing to magazines. See what happens when you go back to school?

5. Fantastic. You can write, that's for sure.
And you are one of my favorite funny people I've ever met on-line. Does your stuff lean toward humor?

Either way, glad to hear it!

10. Yes, it does.
Once my stuff is in print, I will post some of it here. I wrote an essay about DU and that is being considered.

20. Advice from someone who has been there: Do submit your work to
magazines (after doing your research to form a good idea of which magazines would be most interested in a particular piece of your work; you don't want to waste an editor's time with a mistargeted submission).

There are SO many magazines these days (and travel magazines have always worked like this) that have small staffs so they rely on freelancers for the bulk of their feature stories / articles.

Do it. Start now.

22. Thanks, Redstone
I have to submit something to the college magazine before the semester is over. That's a start.
