Being Introduced as a Writer Makes Me Feel Odd
For the first time in my life at the beginning of 2022, I was able to introduce myself as a professional writer. It sounded odd at the beginning of the year, and here in September, it still seems strange. I can tell you this after meeting some people on Sunday at Boise Pride.

They Better Never Give Me a “Dear Jason” Column
I found myself giving advice to my good friend the other day. I started thinking about how often I give advice to him and a handful of other online and real-life friends. I’m also apt to tell my kids what “I” would do in any given tough situation that they’re going through, mainly when asked.

The Other World
When the cold returns, so do my nightmares: vivid, sharp, crisp and painful dreams of horrid things. My nights become trapped in another world, living through movies that only exist in my head, braving stories my subconscious wrote. And, it drives me here to leave them on this page, despite knowing there is no solace in writing them out. It only serves to express what the various part of my brain is waking to scream across the folds of my mind.

Why You Should Blog
By far the most compelling argument in favor of starting a blog is that it gives its owner with an endless supply of opportunities. Blogging makes your professional identity visible to the world and helps you stand out in a unique way. Increased friendship, financial gain, and personal development are all advantages of blogging.

The Ramblings of a Wanna-be Writer
I am a writer. Saying those words have been the hardest for me to say in the longest time without adding a qualifier or holding up "air quotes". I have also seen myself as a creative person who could turn that creativity into the words. I have wanted to write and have enjoyed writing for long enough that I cannot articulate a time when I did not. Whether I was good at it is debatable, depending on who you asked but I enjoyed it immensely.

AI-Generated Characters Versus Actors
Lately, there has been a plethora of articles that show the actor in a film versus an AI-generated image of the character created by an artist and a computer together. The artist feeds the character description from the book into a generator and BANG! We have exactly what Harry Potter was supposed to look like and not Daniel Radcliff.

Beliefs Enhance The Value of Life
There was a girl, two years older than me, who worked as a secretary in an engineering company. 　　Everyone knows that there is no technical content in secretarial work. Every day is roughly answering the phone, sending and receiving faxes, printing and copying some documents, then serving tea and water, carrying bags for the leaders

The Ghetto Love That Changed My Life: The Finale
One isn’t necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.-Maya Angelou

The Magic of Hypnotic Writing: Introduction. Top Story - September 2022.
I got my "hypnotized" writing skills from two strange places. I used to read writers like Jack London, Mark Twain, Shirley Jackson, and Ernest Hemingway and be in awe of how they could weave words so that I would laugh, cry, or feel dread.

My father is too powerful for me
One "You recently asked me why I am afraid of you. As always, I am speechless, both because I am afraid of you and because to articulate this fear would require a detailed count of so many trivialities that I simply could not say them all at once." In November 1919, at the age of 36, Kafka wrote a lengthy letter - "To My Father" - to his father, Hermann Kafka, who was then 67 years old. The letter was more than 100 pages long and dissected in detail the painful and strained relationship between their father and son. He entrusted his mother to deliver the letter to his father, but his mother read the letter and sent it back.
