I am sooooooo geeked. I sold a non-fiction article to "Dragon" magazine. It it will be in the September issue, #323. I've been waiting until I got the contracts,that way it's real, to tell you guys, but I can't hold it in anymore.
I guess that now I'm a "professional" writer.

This is way cool.

Ooops. In all my excitement I forgot to mention what it's about. It's an 800 word article, 1 page, on ways to come up with names for characters, and places.

Wow! Congrats (or for a more rumor-milly feel, here's some conga-rats, dancing merrily around). That's awesome!

Hmmm, too bad I don't read Dragon. I always have trouble coming up with names.

Rahl: You could buy issue 323 at your local bookstore. Then email the editor and let them know how much you loved the article, what a great help it was and how you would like to see more by the great author that wrote it.
