Safety In Numbers

Introduction

This is the second part of Gary Ragnarsson's Frosted Primrose Challenge. In this part, I feature five stories from five different Vocal creators that you have enjoyed during the season.

The music is "Safety In Numbers" by Heads, Hands & Feet

So here are my choices and why.

This was a wonderful emphatic poem, but it taught me a new format, the Triolet, which I used for this poem here. I love it when creators help me discover new things and this was a wonderful revelation from Sandra Matos.

This is a very important piece from Vicki Lawana Trusselli. The media hammers us with what we should look like, what we should wear, what we should do and this drives many to despair because they cannot keep up with the demands of the media. I find it also a very patriarchal attitude targetting women far more than men who are allowed to be fat and topless and still be acceptable.

I found this piece from Jennifer Lancaster @jenergy17 very pertinent. Having a Muse is a definite benefit to any creator. YOu may not even know that you have one, but if you think, you probably have.

This story from Xine Segalas struck a chord (no pun intended) with me because the main image was of five albums in my collection, and just seeing the picture prompted me to play "Yessongs".

I love reading about people's journeys in any area, and obviously, music is close to my heart and has resulted in many Vocal stories from me.

Every story that A B Forbes publishes teaches you a lot in bite-size pieces. I have learned a lot and got great enjoyment from every piece of theirs that I have picked up on. I would suggest you investigate their work whatever you normally like to read.
