State of Mind: Exhilaration!

Well kids, here goes nuttin!'

I've just sent off my essay, "Inauguration of an Apolitical," to several entities for their consideration:

• Washington Monthly
• The Washingtonian
• The Sun
• And many, many influential others that may be able to help me crack my publishing virginity.

I'm rather amazed at the 20th Century technophobia of the publishing world... SASEs? Really? This tech-marketing-gone-writer guy doesn't even own any stamps. Correct that, didn't even own any stamps.

Anyhow, fingers crossed! Though I started kinda big for this round, I'm balancing that by now focusing on some different ideas for smaller periodicals: quips, columns and whatnot.

I'll get back to my BOOK tomorrow, just as soon as I wrap up this task!

Can I get a "WOOT! WOOT!"
