You just never know who's reading your articles and stories

I just returned from a wonderful First Anniversary with my husband and I've been floating on Cloud 9. I thought maybe it was time to return to earth but today I received some absolutely wonderful news...I am going to be in the NY Times on Thursday.

A couple of months ago, a NY Times Writer was doing a search on menopause and, like finding a needle in a haystack, came across my name so she looked me up and found me. She told me she actually found me through a search on authorsden.com.  She read some of my articles and then had someone from authorsden.com contact me, which they did.

We did the initial interview in April. Her Editor had some problems with the story she submitted so she went back to the drawing board a FEW times and just informed me that the story is now a GO.

As someone who's been in the media, I know firsthand how they can take what you say in a LONG interview and chop it up into one or two sentences. But that's OK...it still is an answer to a prayer!
