We Are Vocal Creators

Introduction

I saw this meme on Facebook and it made me think about how think of ourselves as creators, our hopes, successes and what we may see as failures.

WE ARE VOCAL CREATORS

Not sorry about the shouty headline, and the use of Bob Marley's "Get Up, Stand Up" and the accompanying music for this piece.

We all would like to be successful creators, and for some that will happen, but so many writers, musicians and artists have to treat it as something supported by a day job. There are many who have made their millions and could just retire and do what they want.

We would love to have a form of income that meant we could indulge in the things in life that truly make us happy, and allow us to create a share all forms of art.

I believe that all financially successful people have either had big slices of luck or help from others.

While I continue to try and find ways to make that happen for me, as yet it still hasn't happened but I do feel that I have been reasonably successful in life, and on Vocal.

The thing is we may not become financial millionaires but the stories, articles and poetry we share on Vocal brings delight to readers, both vocal members and outside readers, and we should be thankful that Vocal's platform allows us to do that. I'm not sure if they have reached their millionth story yet but that should surely get an award.

Vocal provides us with a huge library, of stories, articles and poetry for all of us to read and if we are members, we can contribute too.

Conclusion

Think, every story that you share may cause joy and excitement, and may make you think and learn things.

This is an ongoing thing, and like me you may anthologise your work and produce hard copy books so that people can read your work when you are not online.

So keep creating and spreading the pleasure of your work throughout the world.

Thank you for reading.
