Out with the old
Last year, I decided to delete my old Vocal account. Deleting my account was like closing a chapter in my life. Grammar, spelling, proper punctuation, and writing flow are not my strong suit. (Go figure, the little dyslexic girl loves to write, right?) Sigh! It was a bold move, but one that I felt was necessary.

Learn to Love Writing
September 2021: I became officially, unequivocally, a full-time professional writer. My rolling admin contract with the university I had been working at finally had an end date stamped onto it. That pretty much took the decision out of my hands. I would just let that day come and go, and when it came and went, I would be a full-time professional copywriter, because I literally had nothing else!

Worth It
I signed up on Vocal in June 2022. Since then, I have wondered what I wanted it to be for me. I have been going back and forth on it.

President of State
Introduction With the upcoming presidential election grabbing headlines, it's like the hottest show in town. Everyone's talking about it, and there's a lot of excitement in the air. They're encouraging us to go out and vote, which is pretty cool because it's our chance to have a say, right?

My vocal goals
My first and most important goal to me is to get a top story. That has been my goal from the start. It doesn't matter to me whether it is a fiction or non-fiction story. I have a feeling it will be a nonfiction story. I have several non-fiction stories written that are in the style of other top stories. I just have to type and publish them. I would love the exposure people get for having a top story. I know I am a good writer. I have stories that have done well. I just can't figure out how to get a top story.

In 2024, my goals for writing are : 1. Increase my sensitivity to express my senses & depth perception. I believe this will increase my views, as a creator.

In My Mind ~ Surviving with ADHD
There are so many misconceptions of ADHD no one takes it seriously. It's so simpler to Autism it should be in the spectrum. I don't share this because I'm always afraid I'm won't be treated equally to my peers, or co-workers. On job applications I have checked off I don't wish to say when it comes to the disability part. I hate the word disability, so much so it's close to loath. It's like it's inviting me to be mistreated or bullied.
