How Many Words?
Nine months ago I published my first Vocal story “Coincidentally ... Ken Nordine” which I had lifted from my blog Seven Days In. It has had 40 reads logged against it, that is an average of one read per week. My least read piece has four reads partially because I never shared it on Social Media because it was such a downer piece but I need to get it out of my system and it sits there now as a warning of how not to be.

Transitioning to True Voice
After years of navigating some social media platforms — spaces built for instant gratification and mimicry — I realized I needed a different kind of space. Years ago, I created a brand to support a community exploring their roots and building internally, rather than feeding the ego machine. I spent years nurturing this brand, planting seeds, and watching them grow as the community embraced their heritage. People began returning to their ancestral lands, learning about their roots, and connecting deeply at heart. The reward was witnessing individuals healed through the power of our shared history and collective experience.

The Empty Locker
I didn’t know his name at first. I only knew the silence. It was a Tuesday in October. The high school hallway buzzed with its usual chaos—backpacks slamming, laughter echoing, sneakers squeaking on linoleum. But one locker stayed shut. No one leaned against it. No one dropped off homework. Just a quiet space where a boy should have been.

The Suitcase in the Hallway
I didn’t pack lightly. The suitcase sat by the door for three days—half-full, then overflowing, then emptied again. I kept adding things I thought I’d need: my favorite coffee mug, the photo from last summer, the sweater that still smelled like home. Then I’d take them out, convinced they were too heavy, too sentimental, too much.
