I've had two short stories published over the last two weeks, this makes me sound like an accomplished writer! But...............
In collecting my money I'd like to thank Heather for making this all possible! (Read into that what you like!).
On the downside I had my story that I sent to 'The Peoples Friend' returned. For your information Peoples Friend, you haven't heard the last of me. I'll be back with more until you publish one of my stories alongside a water colour painting!!
..............In actual fact I've only had two stories published ever (unless you count the one I had published on the '5Live' website) then that's three. That story won me third prize in a short story sweep stake, but that's another tale.
Now, it's quite nice that someone likes the story enough to want to buy it and place it in their publication but, I would like to have one published that I can actually show people! I can hardly show these to my kids!
The first one is about a forty year old woman who convinces her husband that for her birthday he should spank her. As it was for a women's publication the editor would only take it if I used a women's name. If you come across a short story by Ivana Chopski, that would be me! The second is a tale of Internet porn with a twist and is basically filth! LOL!

congratulations on your publication, see you cant get rid of Cliff! will the story to Peoples friend be a bit risky too, that and a risky water calour painting yeah go for it!
Gee thanks for crediting me as your muse...I think! I don't understand HI's reference to not getting rid of Cliff, you havent written a story with Cliff as the main charecter have you? (Don't make me call the men with the nice white coats that do up in the back...)
No! No stories with Cliff but I could have a go??!!
What about getting dirty to Devil Woman? ;)
HI; The story I sent to P.F. was very nice nothing risky within a hundred miles! Perhaps it should have been?! Move Peoples Friend to the top shelf I say, old people get horny too! Don't they? Christ I hope so or I might as well kill myself now!!
Congratulations. I didn't realise that you were published too. I thought it was just your good wife.
Do you have a goofy grin too?
Well done Mr/Ms Chopski - a real accomplishment. Getting published even if top shelf is an acheivement! People's friend - is that still going. Yikes! Maybe you would have more success with them if you could translate a little sauciness into the simple tales of country folk. Vicar wears ladies panties in the pulpit, old Tom running a porn empire from his farm house, Mrs Smith entertaining men in the vacinity of her aga and getting paid. Could be fun - would certainly spruce up the old PF
K; No goofy grin, I had orthodontic work when I was younger!
DJ is the talented one! I have the attention span of a goldfish so type out.... what was I talking about.... oh yeah! I type out a couple of thousand words then get bored. Could do with a dictaphone but have to make do with my finger like everybody else!
QV; Got some good ideas there! Might need to re-name the mag though! How about Peep Holes Friend??!!
congratulations on being published where ever it is
