The Silent Audience: What Writers Don’t Talk About Enough
Let’s be honest—most of us write for people who never tell us if they read a single line. You go for hours to days trying to perfect your little piece of poetry, but when the time comes for you to release it to the world and hit "publish," you're enveloped in silence—the kind that's loud enough to deafen (literally). That part hurts. If I could search for more pain-filled words, I'd have done so and filled a whole paragraph with them. And honestly, that's something so discouraging that it makes you want to go back into your shell and stay there forever.

The Day I Stopped Resisting God
I didn’t realize how long I had been fighting. Not the world. Not people. But myself. For years, I carried dreams that looked shiny on the outside but were hollow inside. I carried expectations that didn’t belong to me. I carried plans that seemed perfect to me, but were never part of the plan God had written for my life.

5 Small Habits That Improved My Creativity This Month
How do I even begin this… The key is to start from somewhere, right? I can say that I took a little, actually more than a little, break from this site. Contributing factors owed to how buzz-filled life became, and that's when I really had to pave more time for my writing. Slacking off isn't a wonderful experience, I tell you — and not only in writing, in literally all aspects of your life.

A World That Was Never Meant for Me
In a perfect world, my story would have never needed to exist. My mother would have grown up in a home where tenderness wasn’t rare. She wouldn’t have learned to turn herself invisible just to stay safe. She wouldn’t have confused silence with peace or obedience with love. She wouldn’t have fallen for the first man who made her feel noticed, even if the attention came wrapped in warning signs she had never been taught to read.

I'm Blaming this on Jack!. Top Story - December 2025.
Hi Mom & Dad, Sending this with the utmost respect and love (and cowardice) rather than voicing it. I expect you to be both angry and disappointed in me in this decision of mine. Frankly, after all you've done for and sacrificed for me, I don't blame you, not even one little bit.

Caffeine-Stained Pages
The coffee was too hot when I spilled it, the first time, the second time—so many times, it seemed like the universe was sending me a message: slow down, stop rushing. But I never did, not really. There was always something else, some pressing need to fill the silence with words that didn’t always mean much. The coffee stains, dark and stubborn on my desk, became symbols of a process I couldn’t quite understand—writing, creating, living. It was all a mess, but I couldn’t find it in myself to care.
