The trip - literature writing contest - second winner
Hello everybody!
I just wanted to tell you all, that I had handed in my story "The Trip" in a german literature contest for lesbian romance. Of course, I had to translate the story first. And I changed a few other things, like where the story is taking place (that would be in Germany because it was a german literature contest ) and the names of the women of the story (sorry, but Megan wasn't a german name ) The story itself stayed the same though.
And, the readers liked my story so much, that they gave me enough votes for me to be the second winner of the contest (out of 14 stories).
I haven't won, BUT, my story will be published anyway next year. I don't have an exact date yet, but the publisher told me it will be in february 2012 most likely. AND, my story will also be translated back into english, so ppl all around the world are able to get my book from amazon and read my story.
I will post the exact publishing date, once I know it.
Thank you all for always commenting on my stories. Because of you, I believed in myself, my work and that I could, one day, reach my goal to publish one of my stories. I would have never hoped for it to work out that fast though *LOL*. But you kept telling me, how much you loved my writing and that gave me enough strength to hand in the story to the contest. THANK YOU!
I hope that you will enjoy my story, once it is published as a book (despite the changes, I had to make).
