Got published in IWW's newspaper, Industrial Worker.
"A View from the Bottom"


I feel cool, I guess.


Order a paper copy! Or buy a subscription, or join the IWW. or something.
Screw the interwebz.

I was published in a novella anthology... not the slightest leftist, though. :(

I think I was in a Q magazine once.... and the local newspaper. Although I'm in the process of writing a letter to the Guardian so lets see where it goes! But congratulations comrade! Keep it up!

To clarify a bit, it's a rather localist little piece, invoking my hometown's maritime history and drawing inspiration from my sailor great great grandfather (who appears to have been the ultimate reactionary, but nevermind that). A total of... one page. :D It was a damn short novella.

But Comrade every word on print is brilliant. Every sentence ever printed can change someone's life.

Congrats, FW. I've had a couple cartoons published on an online political zine, which unfortunately I think is no longer around.

I don't think I've been published, but I did win $50 for getting second place in a writing competition in 7th grade.

It's actually a high point in my career.

By all means, join the IWW! It's a great organization to be a part of, utterly democratic, in my experience, and every worker deserves to be represented and to able to act in unison with other exploited people, against the boss and against the boss class!

Congratulations to the newly-published author!

Yours for the One Big Union,

Thanks for the kind words everyone.
I actually have a lot of my mail shipped to my parent's place, so I haven't got the piece in person yet. I'm going over tomorrow to pick it up. It will be cool to see this in print!

I wrote a poem that was published when I was 6. In a book that people could buy.


It was shit.
