I'm a student in the Jerry Jenkins Writers Guild as you all probably know.
My mentor (or instructor, I suppose would be a more accurate word) has been telling me my work is great. I wasn't going to argue with that (I mean that in the humblest way ;) but I don't really have time for the research and submitting to magazines right now.
So, my mentor gave me the option to rework an article I sent her and she would submit it to Encounter, a magazine that accepts no freelance writers.
You bet I took her up on that! Getting a line that says I've published in a place like that looks great when I submit somewhere else.
Now she wants to submit another one of my articles.
I just might not get published once, but twice in a no-freelance publication!
Have any of you ever read Encounter? I've heard of it before, but I thought it was something of a curriculum.

I'm Going to Submit Something without Doing a Thing!

Okay... now it's my turn to hate you in that loving, Christian way that you described. I hope you get accepted on at least one of your pieces. Excellent job!
Who is your Apprentice mentor?

Ah...feel the hate :)
My mentor is Kim Peterson. Aren't you in the Apprentice program as well?
That's really cool! Congrats! Isn't Encounter a magazine for Sunday school teachers?
Maybe hate is too strong... passionate dislike, maybe...
But great job. Your work is very deserving.
Yes, I am in the Apprentice Guild. I'm enjoying it a lot. I miss my Squire mentor, though. : )
