It was November of 2005, I believe, when I was approached about using one of my photos in a book on the Chicago River. Now, it's published. Just a small image showing the water as it enters the locks but published nonetheless. It's actually the second time I've been published but the first time in a book. It's not often I write about such events, keeping them more to myself and this may not stay in place long.
For more info on the book visit: Chicago River, A History in Photographs by Jonathan Genzen.

You should leave it!!! You are just letting your friends know because we would care! Congrats!!!
My opinion is that we should celebrate our successes. :-)
-- Vicki in Michigan, who just blogged my ATC in a book this week. Like you, it's the second time I've been published, and the first in a book (the other time was a magazine). :-)
Thanks Shirley and Vicki (I need orange). I guess I'm just uncomfortable with self promotion, even putting the jpg vote feels awkward for me.
I don't see it as self-promotion. I was happy to know about it.
Thanks again, shirley.
