My First Story for Vocal Media That Earned me a lot
I still remember the day I first heard about Vocal Media. It was a rainy evening, and I was scrolling through my phone, feeling bored and unmotivated. I came across a post in a writing group on Facebook. Someone had shared their success story—how they earned money just by writing online. I was curious. I clicked the link, signed up on Vocal Media, and started exploring.

To Be A Hero. Content Warning.
The dogs barked again. Incessantly, rhythmically. Their yelps bounced through the cracked streets of Oak Cliff, Texas, echoing between rusted chain-link fences and old houses with sagging porches. The sun had baked the sidewalks into submission hours ago, but the heat still hung in the air like a wet wool blanket. Kudzu clawed up telephone poles. Lawn chairs and broken tricycles sat in overgrown yards like forgotten memories.

"As you like it"
In the sun-dappled kingdom of Arden, where courtly intrigue clashes with the untamed beauty of the forest, As You Like It unfolds as a lyrical exploration of love, identity, and liberation. When Rosalind, the quick-witted and fiercely independent niece of the usurping Duke Frederick, is banished from court, she flees to the Forest of Arden disguised as a young man named "Ganymede." Accompanied by her devoted cousin Celia and the court fool Touchstone, Rosalind’s journey becomes a whimsical yet profound odyssey—one that blurs the lines between performance and truth, duty and desire.

The Amazing Power of AI. AI-Generated.
This contains AI generated text. When I was in high school, I watched a video where a camera connected to a computer was pointed at a cup. The computer analyzed the image for a few minutes before the word cup appeared on the screen. This was in the mid 1990’s. At that time, the very thought of a computer being able to “think” about the identity of an item was completely science fiction. Fiction being the key word. To see that the technology was real, I was completely amazed.

How to Make Your Stories Go Viral on Vocal Media
He had published 12 stories. Not one of them had crossed 100 reads. Some were horror. Some were personal. One of them had taken four straight hours to write, rewrite, and bleed into. He hit “Submit to Vocal+,” waited… and nothing. A few likes. One generic comment. The rest? Silence.

Sunshine After The Rain
Introduction Every month I set prompts in the Vocal Social Society and offer a dollar tip to five random creators who take part in it and ask them to share their stories in the comments and on the thread in the group. This is an Unofficial Unofficial prompt inspired by the fact that I cannot use my main Vocal account because of an unfixed system error.

Unemployment problem and Islamic state system.
In this discussion, we will critically analyze the problem of unemployment and the realistic and morally based solution to this crisis in the Islamic state system. The rate at which educated youth are becoming unemployed in the present times, especially in Muslim countries, is not only a major cause of economic but also of social, mental and moral degradation. Behind this disease is not only structural weakness, but also a wrong perspective, where work means only a job and livelihood means only the glitter of the market.

Why I Picked Up Jane Eyre
When I first encountered Jane Eyre, I was at a point in my life where I felt uncertain about myself. I was attempting to figure out where I fit in, how to express myself, and what my voice was. I remember feeling overwhelmed by expectations — both from others and from myself — and I was constantly measuring my worth against how others saw me. I felt apprehensive, like I was going through life without fully showing up.

But Ralf I don’t have anything to write about.
It always amazes me when someone tells me, “but Ralf I don’t have anything to write about.” There is always something to write about. I can understand that someone might be thinking but my life is boring. But I found that this is rarely the case if ever.

How My Account Got Suspended from Medium (Twice) and Now I am Permanently Banned From the Site
Author’s preface: This story was originally published under the title “How I Got Suspended from Medium and You Can Too - But Probably Shouldn’t" on January 8, 2021. It only described the circumstances that led to my first account suspension. I have not written directly about the second suspension and de facto banning until now though it happened more than three years ago. I have basically left the original piece intact, only updating a few things and adding a few notes, and adding some information about the second suspension and banning. You will note that all of the links in the story which originally linked back to various Medium articles take you to the image shown below. Sorry about that, but it is out of my hands.
