I have proved your code.

I have changed two things the first is at compilation:
g++ -o test test.cc -lSDL -lSDL_ttf (it's not necessary to use freetype).

The other one is when the program loads the font:

TTF_OpenFont(other path,28) (this is not important)

It goes like you expect, the program load and prints "Text goes here" in 
a white background.

Be sure to have the font in the correct place, and if its in the same 
dir, you can try to change the path to "./whatever.ttf", maybe this goes.

PD:Sorry for my poor English.

Zaka.
