Now, I'm a published writer

[greybeta]

My Ferrett sensei would be happy to know that I'm a published writer now. The Collegian, the student newspaper for the University of Tulsa, was so desparate for articles they accepted my guest submission. I'm afraid of copyright rules, so I'll wait for my school newspaper to update the current issue and link it as soon as I can.

I'm especially looking forward to my LJ friend's partywhipple's comments on it.

Be gentle, it's my first published article on paper (I'd link you to my first internet article on Magic, but it's terrible).

I'd just like to explain my writing. If you read the opinion pages of my college newspaper, it's rife with lefty liberals. Now that I'm confident enough in my writing ability, I decided to put up a moderate argument.

That is to say, I didn't write anything that nobody already knew. I purposely clouded my own political views because I wanted people to think for themselves. Only those who know me would catch the little hints I gave on my political stands.

My first props go out to the editor of starcitygames.com, the person who taught me how to write for an audience. Then I have to thank his wife, who inspired the title of my article and gave me a great analogy for voting. Then I have to thank his stepdaughter for her tirade against the war, for it gave me the courage to defend my views.

Thank you all.

It will be online, but for some reason their online version lags behind their paper version. It may be because they don't have someone who's got handy Internet skills, or most of their efforts are getting the paper version out. Perhaps, it's a combination of both.
