It's Friday, which means the new issue of Pipe Dream has been released. I picked it up today, and immediately began searching for my Exercise story. I looked through every page, not finding anything until I reached the sports section. You know, that other side of the paper that no one really reads anyway. Perplexed, I assumed that the story had been put aside for next Tuesday's issue due to lack of space. I turned to the cover of the paper to begin reading through my fellow writers articles, when suddenly, there it was. My story, making cover again! And this time, not just the second story squeezed into the cover. It was the main headline!!! I am so psyched. I love writing, and the fact that the News Editors think my work is good enough to have the front page both times is such a huge confidence booster. I can hardly believe it. My first two news articles EVER, and I made front page both times. I really am amazed.
This only confirms my desire to be a writer. I'm sure now that this is what I will ultimately be doing in my life. Yes, I still plan on becoming a doctor. I truly feel that I will find my true joy in writing, regardless of where my medical profession leads me.
Hooray for clarity!
