When Nameless Finally Has Its Day
Seven years ago, I started writing what will soon become my first, fully furnished novel titled, Nameless. Since beginning writing it, I have often pondered on my audience’s response to it, asking myself questions like: Will they like it? Will they be offended? Does it make them uncomfortable? How relatable is this story? How realistic can this story be? Who am I to write from this perspective that exists totally apart from me? Well, those are questions I likely will not be able to answer until my book is actually finished and put into print. Those are also the kinds of questions that have made this journey writing it that much more challenging to complete. My first and most important hope is for Nameless to become a best-selling trilogy. But if—better yet—WHEN that happens, there are a few things I surely aim to do. In addition to being able to claim reaching my ultimate career goal, I intend to escape financial disparity, pave the way for my novel’s remaining trilogy works, and create more opportunities for myself to expand my writing to other avenues.

We Meet Again
Well, here I am again, giving Vocal another try, three years later. Just a few short years ago, I came across this platform, and just wanted to see how I could get paid to do what I love (at least, as far as I proclaim). The problem I faced that kept me from continuing was the same problem I face as an aspiring writer today--the fear to, well, write.
