I have decided to start working on the “P” on my list and have submitted an article to Shape magazine. Now I know what you must be thinking, what the hell could I possibly write about that would interest “Shape”. That is clearly not my area of expertise. But what I am going to do is contribute to their “My Story” section.
I am going to share my relatively short-lived (thankfully) although frightening OCD experience with their well-toned readers. I know it’s a little out there to write about such a personal topic especially one as bizarre as mine, but I’m over it and moving swiftly along (Thanks to the wonders of therapy and little white pills).
Unfortunately I don’t want to give away too many details, but even when I re-read my story, I think WTF?? Although it’s something I’m able to smile (and even laugh) about now, seeing it all on paper, does leave me with just one word – CRAAAAZEEEEE!
But nevertheless, it’s written and submitted and if Shape doesn’t publish it then I will definitely “publish” it on my blog. Then everyone can read it, re-read, read it again and incredulously say WTF?
It will get published somewhere.
ReplyDeleteI am so curious - so you had better post it so that those without access to South African Shape can read it:-) And does a blog not qualify as being "published" by definition?
ReplyDeleteI hear what you saying Tarryn.. and technically this is being published, but I'm publishing it - I want someone else to say, hey, now that's good, let's put that in our magazine!!
ReplyDeleteAny news on the publishing @ shape yet?
