I went for an interview in Tokyo yesterday for a Tokyo life magazine and was given a 3 year contract for their monthly gallery I will recieve approx $500 (50,000YEN) for a picture that will cover 1 or 2 pages of the magazine. First publication in my life, comes out Sept 22nd.

Does this mean I can call myself a 'professional' now LMAO.

Actually Im very excited and had to share it with you lot because nobody else I know would understand.

I think I have seen that magazine around the house. I'll have to ask my wife. How did you hook up the interview?

My fiancee mother has a contact in that company so she set it up for me. I went to 2 interviews very casual meets and they were really nice.
