Fantasy and Science Fiction on Vocal
I love fantasy and science fiction. They are my favorite genres to read and write, although I have been leaning more towards poetry in my writing recently. I even enjoy reading fantasy and science fiction here on Vocal. Two of my favorite Vocal series are fantasy: Matthew Fromm’s Songs of the Silver Wizard and Amanda Starks’s An End of Gods & Dust (links to both below).

Thank You. Top Story - October 2025.
I have been open about how my mother’s death has affected me since it happened in July. I have shown how depressed it has made me, how disoriented it has made, and how, in an odd way, it has made me stronger. Through mostly my poetry and at least one piece of fiction, I have laid my heart bare for everyone to see—and, for the most part, you have all been very receptive to it. You have made me feel accepted and loved in a way that I have not felt from a community in a long time. And for that, I want to tell you all, thank you.
