    Default "Some of my works" or "Some of my work"

    Dear All,

    As the title says, I would like to know which is the correct version of the phrase --"Some of my works" or "Some of my work". Like,

    Some of my works have been published in reputed journals. -- or

    Which one is correct?

    Thanks

    Which one is correct? Either is OK. "Works" = more than one and/or more than once. "Work" = "works" collectively
    Thanks
