Have you ever gotten fiction published, /lit/?

Nope, never even tried.

I write short poems for the amusement of myself, my friends and loved ones.

This makes me happy, because it makes them happy, and that's better than getting "into the trash".jpg here, or "Too white, not enough gender dysphoria" from the periodical.

I've self-published a few copies of a book I wrote when I was 22. A pro writer told me it has potential. I never had much inspiration after it though.

My first pitch to agents was a bildungsroman, just fucking wew lad not good thinking on my part. For the hell of it I pitched to someone who represented really shit trans writers. The result wasn't surprising.
