What Makes a Slang Word Useful?
Living outside of the Philadelphia area for most of my life, I’ve seen my fair share of slang words enter and leave the fray. Some of them are amusing, some of them are useful, and some are outright pointless and forgettable. But it never really occured to me that there might actually be ways of truly assessing a slang word’s value. There are standards that linguists and philologists use to measure what a new word or phrase provides.

Is Language an Economy or a Tapestry?
For much of my time as a writer, I’ve been torn between two camps. Since middle school, my father instilled in me an appreciation for words and each of their distinct meanings. For any given idea, there are a million ways to express it.

A Six Pack of Writers. Top Story - November 2023.
Hi my name is Rick Henry Christopher On March 8, 2022 I created the Facebook group Vocal + Assist. I had been a creator with Vocal Media since May 25, 2021. That was during a very trying time in my life. It was a few months after I went through radiation treatments for prostate cancer. Shortly after that my mom began hallucinating pretty bad and ended up in the hospital. After that she required round the clock care having been diagnosed with dementia and Major Depressive Disorder. My brother and I taught ourselves how to care for my mom in this condition which also included the fact that she is completely blind and is now incontinent. Then my brother became sick only two months later and he passed away on January 31, 2021.

What Women Think about SEX Versus Reality
As a woman, I have always been intrigued by the societal norms and expectations surrounding sex. Growing up, I was taught that sex was something that women had to be cautious about and that a woman’s worth was often determined by her sexual behavior. However, as I grew older and had my own experiences, I realized that there was often a stark difference between what women think about sex and the reality of the situation.
