A Discovery in a Bus Shelter. Top Story - November 2025.
I met my first publisher at a bus stop. Yes, I am as busy with the challenges as any of you out there in Vocalland. I have also had more contracts added to my teaching schedule, papers marked and to come on the docket, and I think I may have beaten back a slight cold that set up shop at the back of my head and on my chest. I know that I should rest and restore myself to better shape so that I can keep tapping out these pieces. But I feel compelled to talk about a man who changed my plans for my literary career, especially since I did not think I had one.

Everything I've Ever Written is Regurgitated- And Yours Is Too!
Recently, I was flipping through facebook reels— yes, I’m old— when I saw an ad that caught my attention. On screen: colossal beasts with gleaming mechanical skeletons and ragged, battle-scarred hides stomped through a scorched wasteland, flanked by ragtag scavengers and grim-faced soldiers leveling rifles like it's their last stand.

Is a Vocal Conference Possible?
Wouldn’t it be amazing to have a Vocal conference and meet our fellow contributors in person? I know—we’re all over the world, so multiple locations would be necessary, but I think it can be done. I envision a conference in several different parts of the world, connected virtually. I envision groups based on communities with workshops and challenges.

Hitting Pause
I'm still going to write daily - just not here. I know, I know - you are devastated. My daily writing streak is currently on #163. Provided I keep writing every day, I'm going to consider it intact when December rolls around. It'll be here before any of us know it!

A Community in Need: The Truth Behind the Silence
The community I live in is changing, not in the way many think. On the surface, it appears to be progress, new apartments, renovated homes, and rising property values. Outsiders view the Jersey Shore as a destination for summer fun, tourism, and economic growth. But behind those freshly painted walls and tourist attractions lies a truth too often ignored, my community is being gentrified.
