Jots and Tittles

Okay, so maybe famous is exaggerating a bit.  But I did just get this email from Sylvia, of Voices of Orthodox Women (www.vow.org):

Hi Brittany,

Just a note to let you know I've received several e-mails from California and Washington telling me they think your article is excellent.  I thought you'd like to know.

 

Sylvia

California and Washington?  Are you serious?  They think my work is excellent?  And that article was posted only this morning! That's amazing!  That's fantastic!  Huzzah for God!  *happy dance*  *pause to catch my breath*  *more happy dance*

Actually, I didn't think my article was all that excellent, to be quite honest.  It was good enough, but on re-reading even just the introduction this morning, there were some things that I would dearly love to go back and change.  But, hey, if it's making a difference, that's what matters.  Who cares if there were some wording issues?  God is bigger than diction.

That's right. Check this out:

That's me! I'm published! You could cite me now and stuff! How crazy is that? I'm all kinds of excited about this.  It's always been my dream to be published (though I kind of imagined that it'd be more along the fiction lines of things...) but hey, this is just as good, even if I don't get paid for it.

Yeah, I have to run to class now. But I just got Sylvia's email saying that I'm official, and I had to share.  Now, THERE'S something to be thankful for!  ^_^ God rocks my face off!  *is deleriously happy*
