Challenge
My first writing
My first time writing with a hope of payment or earning reads was on a website much like this called helium. You wrote for different subjects, earned from read and entered competitions. From this site I did a few writing jobs for various websites and personal hires. At the time I was happy to earn enough to pay for the monthly internet bill.

Content writing after AI
Content writing is not an exception to the new era of innovation brought about by the quick development of artificial intelligence (AI). AI innovations are fundamentally changing the landscape of content production, delivery, and consumption. Content writers must navigate the complex interplay between human creativity and machine intelligence in this dynamic environment, where tradition and innovation coexist.

Always A Writer
As long as I can remember, I’ve been writing stories, but one of the first that I remember, was for our daily journal writing assignment in fifth grade. It was around Thanksgiving and I wrote about a turkey hiding as a rock so he wouldn’t be eaten. I didn’t have time to finish the story, as was par for the course for me. I wrote a lot of unfinished stories. Still do. But my teacher loved it. She encouraged me to finish it, and even pointed out my writing affinity to my parents. They didn't seem so impressed.

The Writing Circle. Top Story - August 2023.
It seems we are called, of late, to self-reflection. The Vocal challenges on offer at present have created, for me, a kind of momentum. A natural progression perhaps, from reflecting on the work of others, through the impact of others’ work on our own lives, into consideration of what drives us to create our own work, and how that evolves. We each have our own reasons for being here, sharing pieces of ourselves. And I think mine become clear as I reflect on my writing journey.

~We went for a walk!~
~We went for a walk!~ Let me back up a little bit and rewind time and help put this story into the right perspective! I can remember when I first discovered learning how to write letters using, crayons, markers and pencils! As soon I could start writing actual WHOLE WORDS I kinda went a little crazy! I mean there is normal growth and learning, curiousity and creativity, and I was always smart enough to be aware of the other children around me the same age who were going through those normal growing and learning stages! But then there was a thing called Jennifer's phase, that's where I recognized the difference between them and me, I could see and understand the line between their side and where I was in my mind and how I WAS FEELING about the experience of discovering the wonderful world of letters, writing, reading and books!

A Day to Remember
When I was a kid, I wanted to be many things. Still to this day as an adult, I'm constantly discovering new passions. One thing that has always remained constant, however, was my love for words. For story-telling. I read as often as I could, getting lost in fantasy worlds, feeling feelings that I only discovered for the first time through books. It was my escape. I remember a school project that was given in honor of Remembrance Day. There were guidelines to be followed, specific words to use or avoid. I wrote a poem. When it started, it was just a homework assignment. But by the end it became something I was tremendously proud of. It even made my mother cry. 3 pages long, front and back. The words I had left on the page, the way they flowed and told a heart-breaking but honest story, it made me feel more accomplished than I ever had so far, at 10 years old. I had far passed the requirements of the homework assignment, and far passed the writing level of a 10 year old. I had written poems and short stories before of course, but nothing of depth or real meaning. Nothing that meant more to me than this. I dreaded having to hand it in to my teacher the next day.
