Introduction Hi there! I’m Ana Maria Radulescu, but I go by A.M.Radulescu, a subconscious nod to the Potterhead within me. As a teenager, I used to spend most of my money on fantasy and Sci-Fi books. Even back then my dream was to one day see my name on a library display. And even though life took a different course for about 15 years I never forgot that yearning, and I never stopped reading. I guess other things needed to happen first, to mold me into the person I am today and for that journey, I will always be grateful.

I WAS REDLINED
Maxine Cushing Grey was quite elderly by the time I came to know her. She was a staunch advocate of the arts and artists. She was highly regarded as an arts critic in the Pacific Northwest for more than forty years, reviewing dance and music for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Argus publications. She later founded a widely read and respected publication called Northwest Arts, which she published every two weeks until her death in the late 1980’s. Maxine was tireless in her advocacy, sitting through countless City Council and County Commissioner meetings, arts hearings, and nagging the community to support the arts through her letters to the editor.

Creators Of Universes, Weavers Of Our Times
The old addage “The Pen Is Mightier Than the sword” has been plaguing me to answer its laments in a very insistent way. A journaler at heart, I am a person who has recorded her actions, choices, errors, victories, and challenges as my writing outlet prior to joining Vocal for the Little Black Book challenge. This was a massive inspiration for me. I saw the advert, and I went straight at it. The outcome of that, was a 6 part (with 7 and 8 in the works) Sci-Fi adventure that displays a lot of where my heart goes, in terms of my wishes for the human archetype and evolution.

WMS vs. WCS: What to Pick for Your Supply Chain Business?
One of the core pillars of a successful supply chain and logistics business is having the right system in place. You need the right balance for your operations. No technology or legacy systems and you will miss out on the important information to keep operations running smoothly. Much advanced technology and you will face financial challenges besides creating disparate systems that cause silos and increase complexity.

Twisted Passion
Passion is not always pretty. It could be a pile of twisted metal, rotating through the air at a fast speed, landing just a foot from where you stand drenched on a wet road, holding your breath, and clutching a heart beating so hard it could explode. Wide-eyed, you stare. You gasp. Your ears filled with hissing and your nose burning from the stench of hot rain and motor oil.

VOCAL IS AWESOME...
I have been writing on Vocal for a month or so and I came upon Vocal by mistake, to be honest. I was actually planning to write on Medium but due to some issues, which I will be explaining later, I didn’t write there. But now I am totally happy I made that decision. I believe the reason everyone prefers Medium over Vocal is that Medium pays a higher amount for reads than Vocal. But trust me this article will totally change your perspective.

Furniture Designer, Sculptor, and Artist Paul Evans
Paul R. Evans popularly known as Paul Evans was the main figure in the mid-century American studio and brutalist furniture development. Evans reliably pushed limits with his imaginative ways to deal with metalsmithing and furniture production. Paul Evans furniture has a special attraction. His otherworldly works, which challenged what regular items resembled and how they were made, keep on uncovering the entrancing crosscurrents among figure and plan. Evans started working with metal in the mid-1950s—first at the Rochester Institute of Technology's School for American Craftsmen (SAC) in Rochester, New York, where he concentrated under the persuasive American silversmiths and fashioners John (Jack) Prip and Lawrence Copeland, and later at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Evans at that point moved to Sturbridge Village, Massachusetts, where he functioned as a full-time skilled worker, showing different silversmithing strategies at Old Sturbridge Village, a living gallery that re-makes life in provincial New England during the eighteenth and nineteenth hundreds of years. In 1955, looking for a difference in landscape, Evans moved to Lambertville, New Jersey, a notable asylum for specialists and experts, and opened a workshop in a previous chicken coop.
