I’ve been invited to submit a paper to a journal.

And, like, there’s some specific circumstances around that that may make it slightly less impressive, but still

I’ve been invited! to! submit! to an goddamn actual journal

THAT'S STILL A HUGE FUDGING DEAL AND YOU DESERVE TO FEEL PROUD AND EXCITED!!!!

(...my phone decided to correct my potty mouth, but it's a cute correction so I'm keeping it)

That is cool as hell :DDD

On what topic? And you've got me curious about the circumstances, too :3c

Grasshopper metabolism!

Basically I did a course a couple years back that's all about getting undergrads to do research, and they publish the best papers they get in a journal for that course. There was a bit of a delay because publishing malarky, but it's happening now, and apparently I had one of the better papers?

That's still really impressive, though! Just because you were judged against your peers doesn't mean you didn't excel :D

Congratulations! That's so awesome! What kind of journal?

[wolffyluna]

So, I did a course that was about getting undergrads to do research, and the university is putting together a journal of the best papers from that course. (It's going to be used both as something to throw at stakeholders ('look! our students made a shiny thing!') and future students in that course.)

But it also going to be an actualfax open access journal as well.
