Vocal

#20002908924834
Scattered throughout every room of my house you’ll find notebooks. Half started, sad, abandoned notebooks, each threaded with thoughts and musings. Some detailing the tangle of my mind covering at least a couple of decades. Others with scribbles, places and characters waiting to be developed. I start which such enthusiasm, and always, somewhere along the way I lose it. I’m not yet sure exactly what the barrier that stops me from finishing what I start is made of, but it’s there and I crash into it every time. I’m sure that if I were to read all I’ve written before, that I’ll find some words repeating just what I am writing here. Questioning myself as to why I can’t just carry on writing, why, when I put the pen and notebook down one day, with every intention of picking them up again, I never do.

2024 Writing Aspirations
Before I knew what being an author meant, I wanted to be one. I grew up as an only child in a very traditional family – the sort that believed children are meant to be seen, not heard. Thinking about it now, it seems quite bleak, but it didn’t bother me back then. After all, I had books.

22 Engaging Blog Post Topics That Truly Captivate Readers' Interest. Content Warning.
I've always been fascinated by the wide-ranging differences in people's reading preferences. Personally, I derive enjoyment from well-crafted fiction books—those quick reads that effortlessly immerse you in a love story, drama, and almost always guarantee a happy ending. However, I'm aware that many individuals lean towards nonfiction, be it historical, business-related, or autobiographical, in contrast to my preference for easy and delightful "beach reads."

I'm going to enter every Challenge AND write my novel!
2024 will be my first full year in business as a writer, and I have big plans. I started writing my novel in 2021, but considered it just a hobby until last year, when I realized I want to pursue writing professionally. That’s when I joined Vocal Media. I posted quite a few stories and entered several challenges in 2023, but this year, I want to take things up a notch.
