The Accidental Poet by Paul Stewart: An Unintentional Review
The Inadvertent Background I have now read 3/4 Vocal books I picked out. I define “Vocal books” as their contents either came off this site and/or their author is currently on Vocal. Today, we get to see both as I talk a bit about Paul Stewart and his poetry collection The Accidental Poet.

Fangs of Light. Top Story - May 2024.
This story is a continuation of the Tales of Ezok that began in "The Precipice." Reading this story and its companion "Whispers and Whisps" is not required to enjoy this story, but they will each add layers to the character we see here and I would be remiss to not mention them at the very least.

Glass Dolls by L.C. Schäfer: A Review
A Little Background Recently, I came across another Vocal author’s book in the wild, and one agreement to book swap followed by review maxxing later, I found myself curious what other books might exist whose origins were firmly rooted in this site. How were us Vocal authors conducting ourselves off platform?

SEALAB IV: How a Vocal Challenge Loser Became My Most Prolific Reprint
Today, April 17, is a special day for me. It marks the first time I’ve ever had one of my stories performed on someone else’s podcast (a distinction I’m forced to make because I’ve had plenty of my stories performed on my own podcast).

A Bloody Business: The Novel I Created with My Friends
Part 1: Way back around this time last year, I wrote the “Foreword” for what would become A Bloody Business. So preemptive was this move that I didn’t even have a name picked out for the book I had just opened. I didn’t even have three of the chapters written.

A Bloody Business: The Novel Vocal Inspired
I pride myself on being something of a realist when it comes to this platform. There are plenty of things to like about Vocal, but there are also flaws. Folks in the past have written about this site like it’s a utopia; I’ve always maintained that it’s more of a tool. Perhaps part of that healthy skepticism is because I have mixed thoughts on socialized writing like what we see on Vocal and other sites.
