Why Being A Writer Sucks In 2024 - But We Can Be Better. Top Story - April 2024.
Blame It On The Alcoh- The Technology We Have I swear this isn’t strictly a “phones bad” conversation, but it kinda is. In an era oversaturated with technology, we are constantly barraged with the successes of others. Not limited to writing, nowadays, how great we are is often judged on how frequently we are viewed as creators.

Gratitude in Life

The benefits of gratitude are abundant and far-reaching, especially for mental health and strengthening relationships.

Back to the Crowd
So, I did it… It has been a strange few days. The weather returned, once again, to the trickery that is winter in Montreal, Canada. You can never tell when Mother Nature will play games with the city, and a snowstorm hit us with a dusting of whiteness and cold that I did not expect to be so heavy. On the radio, as I got in a bit of stretching and breakfast, the radio covered the funeral of one of our more controversial prime ministers, Brian Mulroney (it is still amazing to me how quickly people forget the full story of certain political leaders). Not really the best moment to be stuck inside with grey skies and no work to do (all papers already marked; just grades to post). I went back online to amuse myself and think about another Saturday night with nothing to do.

The Power of Being Misunderstood
Introduction : You may ask, what does it feel like to be misunderstood? at times it can feel like the whole world is falling on your shoulders and it is a heavy burden, some days you feel weary and you ask why life is so difficult, why cant anyone understand me, have you ever experienced that before? well, I have I know that feeling and you are not alone, you may seek external things for validation to make you think that is what you need, the ego loves and craves things as what we think of as importance, and we as humans love to feel a sense of self importance, it is totally normal, whether that's in support of family, or a friend, or even any stranger and that is fine.

Like Fishing In The Ocean
You know, out of all the questions I’ve faced in interviews over the last thirty years, the one that’s always bugged me the most is the classic: “Where do your story ideas come from?” Honestly, it’s for two main reasons. Most of the time, I haven’t the slightest clue how I stumbled upon that idea. It just pops into my head and refuses to leave. Plus, there’s that awkwardness about sharing my original thoughts in public—I just can’t do it.
