HELP WANTED

"No one wants to pay for distraction, but they will pay if it's packaged as help." (me)   How help is defined is tricky. It depends on the client/customer's wants. If your prospective customer wants to escape their environment, then consider if you, the independent author have the skills, resources, and experience packaged in your book to help.    If your book is the solution, then show them how it can get what they want. In this case, adventure, exotic destination, and a

Dear Readers,  I tend to enjoy reading various articles on writing , the industry, the concepts, et cetera. parallel to craft articles. These topics can be fun or engaging. As some of you know, I have a controlled electronic footprint, meaning, I don't keep old posts. This blog never had fifteen posts and never will cause I don't like ejunk. But, I realize, aside my posts to what I created and create, I need a post to just chit chat if you will. So this post will serve that function, throug

To Be Black and Liberal

You can be black and all kinds of things politically speaking. There are Black Democrats, Nationalists, Sepratists, Marxists, Conservatives, Moderates, and Republicans. You might even call yourself a Progressive or Libertarian. But few Black people call themselves Liberal. Even if most Black people vote Democrat they would reject Liberalism.  If you're a white Liberal or Black Conservative reading this you might think I'm way off base. But being a Black Democrat is not synonymous with being a Li

(1860) FREDERICK DOUGLASS, “THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES: IS IT PRO-SLAVERY OR ANTI-SLAVERY?”

In a speech before the Scottish Anti-Slavery Society in Glasgow, Scotland on March 26, 1860, Frederick Douglass outlines his views on the American Constitution.   I proceed to the discussion. And first a word about the question. Much will be gained at the outset if we fully and clearly understand the real question under discussion. Indeed, nothing is or can be understood. This are often confounded and treated as the same, for no better reason than that they resemble each other, even wh

Welcome to Nightmare Land: 悪夢の国にようこそ『まるで悪夢を抱いているようです』

Last night I had a dream about my uncle Bill. He was sitting with me in a kitchen area and we were talking about life. We were talking about doing exercise and running around the block for health reasons. I remembered he was a military man. We also sat down and read comic books together. He wanted me to read comics to him. I remembered in this dream, initially I didn’t feel like reading the comics but near the end of that portion of the dream, I remember I became motivated to read those comic bo

To regret past mistakes: I see this as a wrong way to reflect.

Reflection is generally considered a virtue, but Reflection when accompanied by feelings of regret I don't see it as a good thing. Because, Feelings of regret are seen as unrighteousness. Because it is considered a bad thing. The evil effects are so bad that they fall into beasts, asuras, and hungry shinigami ghosts. Yes, that is considered a spooky thing. Now then, I will talk about a good man who has no regrets. What is the correct method of reflection? To do so you must us
