Amazing!

My experience with See Beyond Magazine was amazing! I wrote about my nostalgia for New York City, a place I love. For inspiration, I looked through vacation photos and felt like I was still right there in the hustle and bustle of it all; the words flowed easily. Submitting made me anxious, but I’m so glad I did. My article was in the January/February 2019 edition.

Being published felt unreal; seeing my words on paper, knowing others would read my story made me nervous and excited! The first thing I did was order a copy for my proud grandparents. It feels awesome when teachers and students tell me they read my article. We have copies of the magazine scattered all around the house, so all of our guests can read it.

I would recommend writing for SB Magazine! It’s a great way to reach out to people you may never meet and impact others in unimaginable ways. I can’t wait to continue reading and writing for See Beyond Magazine!

Extraordinary!

See Beyond Magazine became a way to express myself through nonfiction, previously uncharted territory for a predominantly fiction writer such as myself. I took snapshot moments from my life and thought about their lasting effect. For example, in my latest article, “After the Second Thought,” I looked at the day I made the impulsive decision to join a journalism class, despite having no prior interest or experience. That was a positive decision even though I decided not to pursue journalism further. Trying something new prevents dread.

In my articles, I take my life experiences and analyze how they’ve changed me. The process itself is therapeutic, and seeing my stories published is amazing. It feels like I’m reaching out a hand to anyone wanting to connect whether they’ve had similar experiences or are just intrigued by what I have to say.

My experience with See Beyond Magazine as a whole, from writing to interacting with the rest of the team, has been wonderful. The magazine opens a door to a spectacular community of amazing people!
