I submitted a photograph and article to my local newspaper, and sat back waiting for the cheque to drop through the letter box (as you do :lol: ).

Paper dropped through the door today, and guess what?

You were wrong, it is in there :SHOCKED: , well almost. Instead of a front cover headline they stripped out my beautifully presented photograph, made a few edits and added some spelling mistakes. Oh and then they put it in the readers letters section

.

Oh well I can at least say "I am published" so long as I don't go into detail
