What's the story about? Me and Joey!! A true story that happened a number of years ago, while moving from Texas to New Mexico to be exact. I was 22 at the time, but the magazine is for tween-age kids, so they depicted me to be about 13 in it. I can hardly wait to see the picture some artist illustrated of us! I won't get my copy until next weekend, but I'll try to share the picture at least when I do.

Congratulations, Lynnie! And props to your sister too. It's always exhilarating seeing your own work in a place where thousands of other sets of eyes are going to see it too.
