Vocal Creators Chronicle. Top Story - September 2021.
Hello all, and welcome to the inaugural edition of The Vocal Creators Chronicle. About the Founders Your editors, Les, James & Caroline, are firm believers in the idea that if you only look at your own work, you are missing the forest for the sake of the trees. Thousands of stories get published on Vocal each day by incredibly talented writers spanning a kaleidoscope of topics and genres. The heads of The Chronicle were inspired to create a free, online magazine out of our desire to open the eyes, minds, and hearts of the world to the brilliant creations we read daily on Vocal—whether it be through browsing or subscribing. We recognized the value good-quality reading material brings into our lives, and we value the creativity of what you, our fellow creators, have written.

Can I Ask You a Question?
What makes you love a book? Or a book series? When you find one that resonates with you—why? Why that particular book? What about this story or that story that makes you want to shout it from the rooftops, share it online, review it, badger your friends to read it?

Tips, Tricks, And Talks With a Beginner: Writing Tools - Part 1 Notebook
Part 1 Notebook: Being that this is my inaugural piece for Vocal Creators Chronicle, I want to state a few things right off the top. This may come as a shock to you all, but I am by no means an expert. In fact, I am a re-emerging writer of old, attempting to reclaim his craft once again. I consider myself back to where I started. So, in other words, I am, as the header states: a beginner. Don’t think of this as a masterclass or an expert exposé, but rather a fellow writer who is beginning a journey into self-discovery and determination to become the best he can be. This voyage should be taken hand in hand as I share with you what I learn along the way such as some tips, a few tricks here and there, and general discussion.

The Psychological Aspect of Writing on Vocal
Writing as a Passion, Hobby or a Livelihood Most people write because they love to write. Writing is their passion, hobby or favorite pastime. Writing as a profession is seemingly tough to many because it involves the acceptability of the works to the readers. If the readers love any piece, they are ready to pay for it or vise versa. On the digital publishing platform, it is also no exception. Writing out of passion, getting acceptability to the readers, and earning for a lifetime from writing works are different things. Acknowledging this reality is important for the persons who want to choose writing as a long-term goal.

Reading, Writing, and Coffee
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Angela Derscha; I’m twenty-nine years old, and I work as a Medication Aide for an assisted living community in Georgia. But through and through, I'm a writer at heart. My obsession for literature began when I was eight years old, with Michael Moorcock and his impressive dark fantasy work.
