You Are a Snowball by Lindsay Rae Brown is a stunningly raw, intimate, and deeply moving piece. It reads like both a confessional and a quiet act of defianceāan offering of vulnerability wrapped in lyricism and personal truth. It will resonate with anyone who has ever felt buried by life and lived to see the thaw.

Happy Almost Spring (Optimistic) everyone. I am Jason Basaraba and go by JBaz on Vocal: I write fiction mostly and dabble in other genres- But I love reading the works of other writers: I try not to add top story as an entry but the first one is to good not to add: Lamar Wiggins Absolutely knocked it out of the park with this tale- https://shopping-feedback.today/fiction/route-96%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E Cathy Holmes- Known for comedy has at time shown a vulnerable side that speaks volumes to her talents- https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/a-piece-of-sky%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E Antoni De'leon - I cannot say enough about this story, Antoni writes with passion about a forgotten person who deserves so much more attention I feel this is a must read- https://shopping-feedback.today/longevity/unconscionable-stealing-a-henrietta-lacks-story-life-extending%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
This one is a great nightmare of psychological warfare by Dr. Jason!!! https://shopping-feedback.today/horror/the-seven-reflections%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
I'm just a Creative that likes to create. I enjoy painting eloquence with words and love the challenge of telling a story in seventeen syllables with a Haiku poem. I use exactly zero AI in my writing, and received a comment recently from a fellow writer who said that she had to wade through five pages of AI-generated stories and poems before she found my poem so let's encourage writers to leave the AI at work and let their creative minds do the writing on Vocal! š
This poem by Emily Chan caught my attention: https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/the-illusion-of-love-7d64k045r%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">

Awesome! I create poetry, short stories, video stories, and songs about life, reality, rainbows, and truth, fiction, non=fiction. I enjoy reading so many of my colleagues' stories. Each story is unique into their creative minds.
