How to be published and paid for it
It made me
Elated! 
"Mind-blowing!"
How I did it: I've been writing and sending off pieces since I was 15, and this will be the second anthology I am to be published in, but the first paid one. The book - Visible: a Femmethology is due out in March 2009 and I can't wait!
Lessons & tips: Keep writing. Keep sending off pieces. Try the smaller, lesser known publishing houses. Talk to other writers, published or not, and seek constructive criticism. But above all else, believe you can do it!
