I had always seen articles posted by Odyssey on almost all of the social media platforms that I use, but I never thought that I would one day be a Content Creator! Odyssey has given me the great opportunity to set aside time each week to express myself in a public setting and I'm so thankful for that! While I'm so happy to be a small part of Odyssey, it does get a little stressful sometimes. Here are 11 gifs that describe my experience with Odyssey so far:
1. Finally Applying
After months of toying with the idea, you finally apply and keep your fingers crossed!
2. Getting Accepted
Finally getting to be a content creator makes you all sorts of happy!
3. Writing Your First Article
You're so excited and feel so accomplished! You put a ton of work into it... and then realize you have to do it all over again in a few days.
4. Getting Good Feedback
When you labor over something it's so fulfilling to get positive feedback and helpful criticism!
5. Begging Your Friends To Share Your Work
Every group message you're in is flooded with "Share my article!!"
6. Coming Dangerously Close To The Deadline
"I work best under pressure."...yeah.
7. Having No Idea What To Write
But after a while of racking your brain for ideas, something comes to you..hopefully.
8. When Your Editor Gives You A List Of Ideas
THANK YOU!
9. Finding Random Inspiration
Suddenly, an idea for the perfect topic pops up in your head!
10. Turning In An Article Early
You feel so responsible when really this is something you should probably be doing every week.
11. Submittimg Something You're Proud Of
Nothing beats the feeling of writing something from the heart. It always feels so good to submit something that you can't wait to get published. It makes all the stress worth it.
