Have you ever had something you've written published?

I've had a few articles published in professional publications and a couple of reviews of books (the academic sort) published in a couple of places.

Lowell, MA USA

I guess I've been published reguarly since 1983 - since I have worked for newspapers through last October. I now work for a telecommunications company, corporate writing and newsletters, so I guess I am still being published.

Cindy, 41

Yes, years ago. Nothing overly impressive though.

Fisch, 47
Preston, CT USA

Yes.

Karen, 23
Ames, IA USA

Once in fifth grade I made it into a book, I wrote a music review in college that was published in a magazine, and I recently was one of the submitters to a book called "R Father N HVN"

Lots of times, though nothing major. I've written and edited newsletters for various organizations. For a good many years, until Jill took over from me, I wrote my class notes for our alumnae magazine. At one stage of my career, I wrote a series of research reports, and at another I wrote portions of the governor's budget message. I've also had a couple of technical and user manuals published for limited distribution.

No. I wish.

Some poems when I was younger, more recently short stories. I was in the running to get a regular column in The Guardian, a British broadsheet newspaper, and I got quite far - it went to someone else, sadly.

Aly, 17

No. But art I have created has been printed.

Janet, 45
E. Brunswick, NJ USA

I've been published--but only in specialized magazines with a small circulation.

Jill, 61
Saylorsburg, PA USA

I've put some of my songs on mp3.com. www.mp3.com/earl_snell There used to be ten or twelve songs on my page, but now they limit non-payers to three songs. I don't know which three remain.

A-Dog, 20
Eugene, OR USA

I wrote something in college for a class and it was published in the local newspaper. Other than that, not yet, but I am working on it!

Tracy, 24
Ocean City, NJ USA

Yes. I have written a number of articles for publication in a newsletter that my company produces. It has a distribution of 25,000.

Laura, 38
Lowell, MA USA

I've had short stories and articles published in Scholastic Scope, Boys' Quest, Writer's Journal, Grit, and a few religious publications. I also have a children's book, which is now out of print, except for the hardcover version for schools and libraries.

Judy, 62
Easton, KS USA

I had a little program published in a math journal about 30 years ago.

Cathie, 53
Novi, MI USA

Well, I'm having a photo that I took of my daughters published. I've never written anything that was published.

Doug2, 30
Kansas City, KS USA

Yes. And I loved it! But it's so much better when you have your stuff performed. If you have the means, I highly recommend it!

Keri-Jade, 23
Brampton, Ontario CANADA

I had a short story published in a creative writing journal that my high school put out. I also have numerous pieces of fiction, essays, and poetry that have all been published on the Internet. Other than that, I've never been professionally published, even though I would love to be (it's one of
my goals for my life).
