You prepare yourself for the unthinkable, practice your public speaking, polish your prose, and maybe just maybe a major media source picks you up. A program director, “booker”, talent scout, or editor decides that your writing isn’t half bad. They hem and haw over the childish nature of some of your efforts but the big Kahuna decides that you are worthy.
Your phone rings, or your email sings, or your ears burn but in any one of these cases you are contacted with the sweet news-your blog is being picked up.
