It's all in the mind?
Just wondering why, it seems that Labor Day seems to come quicker and quicker every year it seems. It is a day to honor the workingman but why are there still others that work on Labor Day like nurses, the military, and others too. The picnics from the staples from hamburgers and hot dogs to maybe some that do brisket or sausage somehow along with potato or macaroni salad and usually the same desserts from various pies, cakes and brownies. It always seems to be the same from year to year that it makes like a normal day working hard.

500th Story: A Message to Vocal Writers
I finally did it! I've officially reached the 500-story milestone! Since joining this amazing platform called Vocal back in 2018, my goal was to write about topics that not only were relatable and important to me, but also relatable to others. I went from a subscriber count in the single digits to 62 subscribers. My goal is to reach 100 subscribers in the next year. If this feat were to surpass that total, we would celebrate this achievement together. I say we, because you have been part of my success and stood by me. My love for writing dates back to the fifth grade, where I started writing poems about anything. I took an extended break from writing until I found Vocal and decided to give it a try. After the first month of being on this platform, I knew that I found a site where I could express myself. Now that I've reached this important milestone, my goal is to write 1,000 stories within the next couple of years. I'm halfway there, but I have to keep pushing. I've had several stories that were chosen as Top Stories and also received one-off tips. They help so much and means that you're supporting creators like me, so we can keep writing and publish new stories. I have yet to win a challenge on Vocal, but that only motivates me to keep writing more stories and maybe one day, I'll achieve that goal. If I were to win my very first challenge, we're going to celebrate that moment together.

A New Venture
I am starting a new coloring venture, and I am going to share this here for all my fellow creators here on Vocal.media.com. There is a coloring site known as coloringbookfun.com that has many images that range from children to adult coloring pages. I have permission to sell the images that I color at a farmer's market as well as post here on Vocal. I have saved and printed out the email that gives me permission to sell these images at the farmer's market and post here as well. I know here on Vocal you will not be able to buy them, but I am hoping for 'reads' that I will then call 'views' and maybe even comment on them. Just wondering would I put these 'colorings' in the ART community, the Writer's community for there will be a brief paragraph on how maybe these images could be used in other ways. Please share your comments.

A Few Musical Journeys
Introduction A few writers have emabarked on some writing projects that will take them two months to complete, and it it they share a song that that was a prompt and influence for their writing. I don;t think I have seen a Top Story yet, but I suppose you can't award a Top Story for a concept, but surely some of the entries will be worthy becasue they carry the concept with the.

Unofficial Vocal Challenge Observations
Introduction Most unofficial challenges, especially from Vocal favourites, are often rewarded with Top Stories, which is beneficial to the creators and others who want something other than the official challenges to take part in.
