Here's an update on one of my activities, mentioned in this post.
I submitted an article via email to a med tech magazine way back in July, and blithely anticipated getting some sort of email shortly, to tell me the article had been received. I didn't hear a thing for what seemed like a very long time. I was planning on sending an email after a month, just to make sure my submission hadn't been mistaken for spam.
Today I got a response that the editor was interested in publishing the article online, rather than in the magazine. They have an online component with web exclusive content.
The editor wants to edit the copy of course, and will send me the rewrite in a few weeks. More waiting. I'm dying to see what he does with my wonderful prose. I hope he doesn't take all the good stuff out. (But it's all good stuff!)
This is still no guarantee that this article will ever see the light of day, or earn me any money. But it's a start.

Update update:
I've gone through the editing process and emerged unscathed. The article should be posted Wednesday, 8/25/04. I'll add the URL when I get it.
And I'm getting $50.
