Quite the Compliment

My friend Jay is taking some college course...music theory or something of the like. His recent assignment requires him to take a section from some story and make a musical composition for it. So Jay thought it'd be fun and unique to use one of my stories. He wanted me to write him a little piece, but I only had two days and couldn't come up with something good in that amount of time. I had a few bits and pieces of different stories I've started and I handed him an 8 page chapter of one of my writings. Today after school, I get a call from Jay. He told me that his teacher had read over my story and told him that she had really enjoyed it, wanted to read more, and even thought that I should be published! I just couldn't believe it. I mean, I've gotten compliments and such before, and one of my teachers has read my story and has complimented me greatly, but I don't even know who this lady is who read my story and here she is saying that I should be published. It feels great to have that said of a piece of one of my stories. It's definitely a push to keep on going with my stories and to strive to be published some day.
