Don’t Give In to These 6 Writing Doubts
“A word after a word after a word is power.” ― Margaret Atwood There’s power in the written word, but if you’re early in your journey, it’s hard to believe. If you write and write but no one seems to read, it’s hard to keep your confidence.

Choosing Your Genre From A Chinese Menu
The Chinese menu is arguably one of the best, if not one of the most confusing, ways to order food. The basic concept is that you have two or three columns of food, and you get to choose a number of items from each column based on the size meal you order.

How I Discovered the Joy of Writing
I never imagined that writing would become one of the most important parts of my life. For years, I thought of writing as something purely functional—school essays, work reports, emails, lists, and nothing more. It wasn’t something I did for fun, and I certainly never thought it could be a hobby. But life has a funny way of surprising you, and somewhere along the line, writing quietly found its way into my heart.

A Discovery in a Bus Shelter. Top Story - November 2025.

But I feel compelled to talk about a man who changed my plans for my literary career, especially since I did not think I had one.
