"Hat-trick"

Just found out this evening that I'm going to have a short story published in a monthly horror magazine.

Thirteen Magazine will be publishing One Hell of a Battenberg (a very different version to that that appears on this forum) in their December issue.

That completes my hat-trick of TV, Radio and Print.

I don't think I mentioned the Radio thing before, but one of my short stories, The Grey Ghost (again, different version, and different name to the one on this site) is to be read out on a local radio station as part of a series in which they read one ghost story a week. This is going out in the Forest of Dean area in the Autumn.

I've mentioned the TV stuff before, the sketch on shoot the writers, and well, now it's actually two sketches (though they kind of screwed up the second one). I still don't have the date it'll be screened, but I have seen them both. It'll definitely be before the end of the year.

I guess the bad point is that I'm not getting paid for any of it, but the good point is that it all goes on the writing CV, I'm building up experience, and I'm having fun.

Maybe you will be a best-selling author one day.

Well done Meka. You're another step closer to being a full time author/screenwriter/famous person

Thank you one and all for your kind words.

Good luck if you choose to submit anything, I imagine you have a pretty good chance, given some of the stories I've read on here.

Heh, you've become quite the accomplished author!

Keep at it, someone will give you money soon :^)

gumption, what a wonderfully underused word :-D

Sweet; very many congrats Meka. Wish I had the gumption and confidence to submit my own writing like you clearly have.

Thanks Meka.

I'm pondering what to submit.

It seems fine for me.

Link not working man. You're preventing me being published!

Many congrats. At this rate we will be asking for your autograph soon :)
