I wanna know if any of our fellow people at /it/ actually managed to write and publish something, and how successful it was

Only short stories so far but I'm hoping I get somewhere based on that.

I've been published 100+ timesm between one newspaper and 2 magazines. Art journalism/criticism, mostly 500-1200 word stuff. I get 100 to 250 an article, depending on the length and publisher. Been doing this for 3 years now. Still have a side job delivering sushi.

some short stories, a small number for pay.
many rejections.
no real fame, just looking for my break.
I've gotten three short stories published, unfortunately I haven't been paid for any of them.
I'm trying to find an agent so I can get a novel I've written published. It's a fantasy story that I think is fun to read, so I hope that if I can actually get it out into the world it might be a bit of a success.

i was published in my school paper but my roommate was the editor so i guess that's doubly worthless.
I've had several articles (both technical/doctrine related and historical) published in military professional journals over the years. I did it for free though.
