World Changer
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I was born ordinary. Really! Really really ordinary, like if I'd have wanted it, no one would have ever known my name or that I ever existed. I could have played it like that you know. I could have chosen to stay ordinary and hidden in the guise of a regular person pursuing a regular life. But I didn't. You know why? Because some trip lever was triggered in me somewhere back about 35 years ago.

Having disabilities that are not “Disabilities”
I do not know how people do this every day. You who deal with this as well, are the true warriors. I am currently dealing with “the system”, seeking employment in a field I have zero experience in as a 39-year-old woman which seems is next to impossible. “You need a degree”, ok I am working with vocational rehabilitation to get a degree in Business, Check. “We need experience.” Not sure how to get that when no one will take a chance on you. I am extremely intelligent and have “superior” hands-on and reasoning skills. Doesn’t matter. So, I am left unemployed, hunting for someone that can work with my “disabilities.” What are my issues? Well, plantar fasciitis with bone spurs... not a disability but, you can't walk or stand for more than 2 hours. Tendonitis... not a disability but, your ankle can give out on you in a stabbing blinding pain whenever it feels like it. Major depressive disorder is a disability, but you can’t receive any financial assistance outside of vocational rehabilitation with it. Moderate Anxiety disorder, a disability but again, no financial assistance available.

Certified bookworm, new writer, hopeful dreamer, passionate traveler, cat lover, life enthusiast. Top Story - August 2021.
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.
