Writing has become more important as I live with cancer. It's a therapy, it's an escape, and it's a way to do something lasting that hopefully leaves an impression.

Why Writing On Vocal Made Sense In The New Normal
It was late one night in November of 2020 and while that was late into the game I remember it well. This advertisement pops up on Facebook, I see it on Instagram as well, make up to $6,000 a Month Writing From Home. I've literally written thousands of stories, I tell myself as I think about the possibility. I remember over the years, different people would say they could see what happened when they were reading my narrative reports. It was perhaps one of the biggest compliments in my professional career. These were Sheriffs, Judges, Lawyers, Prosecutors, and Deputy United States Marshalls. It was a very satisfying feeling to know I could impress people so accomplished, so educated, with my written words.

The Age Of Heroes Never Dies
The age of heroes is something that I heard in the Justice League movie. They claimed it had long since died. Only in the movies did the age of heroes die. In the real world, the age of heroes is something that lives on every day in our world. There are so many heroes in the world that if we could for a while focus on them instead of the mistakes, the intentional evils, the problems of the world, maybe it would uplift people.

Let's Save The Oceans And The World With A Little Change.
America is a land of abundance. We are approximately thirteen percent of the population of the planet and leave behind twenty-five percent of the world's carbon footprint through rampant and out-of-control consumerism. For years, in America, we have lived by the motto that “bigger is better. But, is it really better or just a sign of success and wanton recklessness. While there might not be “tons” that we can all do as individuals, there are many small things that can be done by all of us that would help in every area. Some of those things are as small as changing what we buy, how we buy it, what we drive, what we worship, and generally, just thinking before we act. If we stop treating the world as if it will forever exist in this abundant fashion then perhaps we’ll reverse the damages that have been done to our world, specifically our oceans. Here are a couple of things that I'm trying to do as my part of helping with this problem.

Reviewing Spiral, The Newest Installment Into The Saw Franchise, Starring Chris Rock and Samuel Jackson.
Originally titled Spiral: From the Book of Saw Chris Rocks' passion piece story that carries on the legacy of the Saw series finally arrived in theaters on May 14th, 2021. After being stuck in the Covid-19 purgatory of delayed-release dates a reputable horror franchise was finally back in theaters. Admittedly, I'm a big fan of the series originals that starred Tobin Bell as the titular bad guy, the psychopathic Jigsaw. The Jigsaw characters' psychopathy was different, new, and intriguing compared to the same old rehashed formulized slashers. In addition, the creative ways he would come up with for murdering, sometimes eviscerating his targets, made the series fun and oftentimes, cringeworthy.

TO MASK UP, OR NOT TO MASK UP. THAT IS THE QUESTION.
After the past week of numbers and metrics being considered by the experts, the question now becomes do we mask up, or are we truly safe in the areas mentioned by the CDC. We've all waited for more than a year now for the world to start to head in the opposite direction, to start to return to some resemblance of normal. While it may be time to start looking for a bright cloud on the horizon, there are still many questions to be answered about the future and Covid-19.

The Most Intriguing People In The World And Why Two Million People Might All Know One.
The world takes all kinds of people and I think I've met most of the types that can be categorized into some genre or category of person. There are the blue-collar guys, the white-collar professionals, the soccer moms, the politicians, the civil service workers, the students, and the academics. I've even met a few that I simply couldn't categorize, nor did I imagine a fitting category for them. They, for lack of a better term, are the ones I call the monsters. There is, without an adequate psychological standard for these beings, a type that is simply monstrosities, or perhaps abominations is a better word. Of course, that was my professional choice for many years, being exposed to these monstrosities.

On A Planet With So Much Water Why Would We Ruin Something We Depend On To Live? Three Simple Ways To Protect Our Environment And Our Futures.
That'll end up in the sea, all it takes is one storm, one high tide coming in, and it's gone. Plastics can take from as little as 20 years and to as long as 500 years to decompose, depending on the materials and structure. Sunlight exposure helps to degrade or break down plastics. Like our skin, plastics absorb ultraviolet radiation from sunlight which breaks down molecules. Photodegradation is the name of the process and it's why landfills often expose plastic waste to the sun to quicken the process.

Your Vocal and Vocal+ Reads Are Where The Money's At. How To Drive Up Your Reads By As Much As 400% In 30 Days.
I first heard about Vocal+ in November of 2020. Looking back in time, I wish I knew then what I know now. It was starting to get cold outside, bass fishing season was over in my region, and I was looking for something to focus on in my spare time. Which, during the pandemic, I had far more of than I cared for. So, stumbling across a platform that I could use to attempt to write from home, become a better writer, get into content creating, and let's face it, maybe make some extra money, sounded all too exciting.
