Eddy (EDD-ee)
What It Means - An eddy is a current of water or air running contrary to the main current, especially as a whirlpool. In figurative use, eddy may also refer to a contrary or circular current of thought or policy. // The strong gusts whipped up eddies of fallen leaves. // They were caught up in the eddies of chaos.

How I write my Poems 01.
Previously, I published my first ever exclusive story on Vocal. My plan was to host mini poetry workshops, revealing how I replace certain words with more grappling English that bribes the reader to shovel around their thoughts. But due to the fact that I have started a job that requires me to write weekly I am going to do away with exclusive stories and just post the mini workshops sporadically here with everyone instead of having to commit to exclusive blogging.

Shame, Guilt, and Self-Criticism
You are a Badass Deck, by Jen Sincero — It’s time to get mighty clear about what makes you happy and what makes you feel the most alive, and then create it instead of pretending you can’t have it. The cards in this deck were created from a book You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life.

Art inspired winners
This challenge was set to demonstrate how art can move us, inspire us, and help us to come up with the ideas we all need to help us with our creative writing work. If nothing else, I hope that this exercise demonstrates how we can all be inspired by art. If you ever find yourself short of an idea for a story, why not try looking at a painting, a sculpture, a photograph, or even visiting an art gallery? Choose a picture, any picture and just look at it for a few minutes, allow yourself to be absorbed by what you can see. Imagine what the artist was feeling when they created the work and imagine yourself as a part of the picture. I can pretty much guarantee that, after just those few minutes, you will have some new ideas to write about.
