Challenge

My Science Fiction Imagined as a TV Series . Top Story - February 2024.
I’ve always wanted to write a book for as long as I can remember. Even more than that, I’ve always wanted to be a writer. My desire to write happened shortly after I learned how to read and write. It was one of my childhood dreams and after all this time, as my writing has grown and changed, and I developed my thoughts on writing and improved, I’ve never outgrown the desire.

Our History
I settle down at my vanity adorned with slightly demolished photographs I did not take and whose colour is yellowing with each passing day, dried-out flowers I picked with my mother out in our garden back in spring, and herbs my grandmother collected for me, her remedy for every little thing. With the touch of herbs and botanical secrets, I draw in the wisdom of long-forgotten healers, their remedies a whisper from the past. Rooted in the earth, connected through soil. Aren’t we all?

Lost Locket Finds Love
In a world where inanimate objects could speak, I, a misplaced umbrella named Ella, found myself caught in the winds of fate – quite literally. My owner, a forgetful soul named Oliver, left me behind in the rush of a sudden rainstorm. As I lay abandoned on a park bench, my frayed edges and sturdy handle became witnesses to the whimsical dance of droplets around me.

The Call to Creators Has Been Answered! This past month eight fantastic and unique writers have participated in my unofficial challenge here on Vocal: “The Ad Collab”. “The Ad collab” is a challenge born from my desire to generate an opportunity for creatives to connect and collaborate.

THE REAL REASONS NO ONE READS YOUR WRITING . Content Warning.
I would like to discuss a recent project that I took on. I won't go into detail about the project itself, but rather, I want to discuss why I decided to write a personal project. Specifically, I want to discuss why I'm writing a book that no one will ever read, though that is a bit of an exaggeration because my brother wants to read it, and a few friends might, but it's something that I'll never publish.

What does a year as a writer look like?
As a creator time seems more like a construct than to the average person. We string together different time periods, different limits of realities, like it’s a common thing among our busy schedules. How could it feel like a 200th entry, when we’ve written thousands in our head?

The Beauty of Gratitude in a world full of Cynicism
The beauty of gratitude in a world full of cynicism Ever acquainted with the phrase that the world that you exist in, the life that you embody dwells in the perception of the stance you hold for yourself. The beauty and the tragedy of life is that it is as beautiful as the optimistic lens of perception and as ugly as the pessimistic view of your being. The strive of our endeavours and the constant effort to achieve the next massive milestone often drive us to the edges of insanity, to be in the consistent light of greatness we lose sight of the great strings of joy that bind our existence together. To be the best we have ever been we must be mindful of the best we are. Coinciding in the traps of negativity and yet claiming to be the best version of yourself is a blinding truth that lies to only you. Acceptance of what was and what is the only path that will lead you to what it is that you are meant to be.
