I've mentioned occasionally on here that I write a blog, about mindfulness, yoga, and mental health stuff. I submitted a piece of work to a proper mental health support website, and I GOT PUBLISHED!

Just wanted to show off a little bit *twirls*

Excellent.

In the days before the Internet, there was a whole series of negative letters in The Times, concerning mental illness.

I wrote a supportive one, moaned about their unbalanced coverage, and it was published.
My one and only ever letter to a paper.

I was dead chuffed too.

Good work.

I know how mental illness is still somewhat neglected. And misunderstood by many.

They didn't, they work on people submitting work, and I've submitted a few recently. This is the first piece I've ever had published though.

Well done to you and enjoy showing off!

Reading your post brought to mind the poems of an aunt of mine which she had published many years ago in a local paper. I still have many more tucked away somewhere and her (now grown) children have no interest in them.

Keep going with your blog, the subjects appear to be very important, especially mental health. Good luck!
