Compassion To Self And Others
Self-love is the road toward healing. These prompts are an invitation to step inside yourself. Rupi Kaur When looking inside myself it is not always where I want to be. Today is that day. I definitely have work to do with the following prompts. I have a ways to go with each of them.

In September Autumn Comes: A Mikeydred September Dollar Prompt For All Vocal Creators
Introduction Every so often 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.

1940s Films and the Unreliable Narrator
“I remember the day that Vocal challenged me to write a story with an unreliable narrator.” So says the disembodied voice, just a heartbeat after we hear the shots and see a corpse face down in the sparsely furnished, cheap motel room.

Summoning the Pantheon
Hey all you lovely writers! 🩷 Something that I have loved over the last months is taking part in other writer’s unofficial challenges, they have been so much fun! So I’m going to be brave and try and put my own unofficial challenge out there for you all to attempt (or not attempt if you choose not to)

The Thrill of New Beginnings and the Satisfaction of Completion
Despite reflecting on whether I prefer to make a fresh start or to finish up with something that has taken so much of my effort, I realize it is hard to decide because each can be intense in its own way. Each of them has its own share of energy, fulfillment, and emotions. Nevertheless, if I had to choose between the options, I would slightly favor the aspect of beginning a new thing for the excitement of it.

20,000+ Reads and Counting - Reflections
“Always celebrate your wins. Big or small.” – Leigh Shulman So, I am not even sure what to say. I had been aware it was getting close…like four months ago…so then the heat died down on the potential excitement. I knocked past 20,000 reads recently and Vocal may just be one little hovel, little hole the internet to which we can't help but fall in, but I am proud and pleased as punch. That is from March 2021 when I first joined up until today when I published this.
