Vocal & my relationship to publishing traditionally
Ever since my small writing beginnings, when I started writing on Vocal in February 2021, I had been in a truly terrible slump & funk when it came to my writing. I had so many unfinished projects, ideas, half finished manuscripts and first chapters that were going nowhere.

Beautiful! I want to climb a mountain now!
I could feel the cold wind on my face reading this! Lifting me higher!
Gosh this felt so liberating! Loved your Haiku so much!
Exquisitely written!!! Loved it!!!💕❤️❤️
I like the sense of journey in your Haiku defined by landmarks, which when land navigating serve as guideposts. I love Hannah's interpretation. Wished I thought of it.
More mountain action. Again, we see both ways but not so much where we are stood. Just have to feel where we are.
