Small Win - Great Rewards. A Tribute To the works of D. Alexandra Porter. Vocal creator.
Cover Video Dedicated by Alexa to Lamar, Dharsheena, Novel and others. Thank you D.
The small thing which I did was read a story by D. Alexandra Porter and recommend it for a Top Story. Which she did receive. The great thing is that we became great Vocal supporters and friends.
There are some great moments in life which one never forgets. Great friendships are like flowers blooming in a wonderous garden...a garden whose petals always remember you. The fragrant essence of the garden friends is ever present, always within reach - always there when needed for a kind word of cheer.
There are many loyal creator friends here on Vocal. You know who you all are. I am very grateful for your loyalty and constant support. So don't be jealous of this article dedicated to Alexandra.
It is her turn to be spotlighted for her wonderful YouTube dedications to Vocal members.
D. A. Porter is one of those moments, one of those friendships that remembers you when you seem to be forgetting your Self.
Alexandra is a creator and shareholder of Vocal Media. She is not as active on the platform now as before - but is off creating her books and videos. You may see her popping up in your comment sections here and there as she observes us from the multiverse of our stories.
She is a vivacious, gifted and multi-talented creator, singer and YouTube sensation in the making.
You can find her here on Vocal -> D.A Porter
A few of her Top Stories on Vocal
I remember the days when we had such fun reading and honoring the joy of lifting one another up...Alexandra always excelled at doing these wonderful dedications. Bless her kind soul.
Here are some of her YouTube Videos so far:
BEGGLEDERT is a character in a book she is currently working on.
Why does Lamar get to be so young and handsome?
I am not quite sure what I did to deserve such a powerful shining ray of her personal recognition...but I feel extremely blessed to have met my powerhouse of a friend.
She lifts my spirit with her tremendous ability to instantly paint one as a star up in the sky.
๐ฟHere's to Alexandra - an Exceptional Friend
To call you a friend is to use a word too small for what you are.
You are a sanctuary in human form - a place where laughter thrives, sorrows soften, and truth is always welcome. In your presence, the world feels more possible. More poetic. More kind.
You listen not just with your ears, but with your whole being. You remember the things others forget - the quiet victories, the unspoken fears, the dreams still unfolding. You hold space like a lantern in the dark, never demanding, always illuminating.
You are the kind of person who turns ordinary days into forever chapters. Who sees beauty in broken things. Who knows how to make someone feel seen, even when theyโve forgotten how to look.
Youโve taught me that friendship isnโt just about being there - itโs about becoming there. Becoming the place someone returns to when the world grows loud. Becoming the mirror that reflects not just who we are, but into whom weโre evolving.
Thank you for being that kind of friend.
For your wisdom, your wit, your warmth.
For the way you show up.
For the way you stay, even when you are afar.
You are rare. You are radiant. You are deeply, unapologetically you.
And I am endlessly grateful.
D. I finally figured out how to change my phone number so I could subscribe to your works. One more thanks to you for teaching myself the way to perseverance.
Best of luck with your book and everything in your life.
Your Friend. N.
..............................
p.s. Don't tell her I mentioned this...but, Alexandra is also working on a start-up publishing company, mainly for neophyte writers who are tentatively dipping their toes into the shining sea of book publishing.
She says: "My publishing company will be Star Epics (my LLC)".
I asked if she will welcome other writers from here to publish with her.
โ๏ธ"Yes, my LLC will extend to other writers, too. One reason I am building a new start up (after learning from past failures) is that novel entrepreneurs need a place to shine. So what if their books lack editorial polish, especially the first one... Tolkien revised HOBBIT after writing most of LORD OF THE RINGS".
I will be supporting her all the way.
I better get to curating some serious writing.
Such a beautiful thing that Vocal has done for us.
Maybe Alexa can collaborate with them in the future.
The sky is the limit.

Sounds like a wonder Friend!! I donโt see her around these days. Thanks for sharing her other projects with us Novel!
Alexandra's work is always so phenomenal, be it her writing, her stories, or her videos. I feel so honoured that I got to be a character in one of them hehehe. This was a wonderful tribute to her!
Alexandra is an amazing writer. Yes, I'm talking about you, Mrs. Porter.๐ This was such an admirable and long-awaited tribute. And who better to pen great words of nobility other than the queen of lexicon herself, Novel Allen. Thank you. You two would make a dangerous duo if you ever collaborated on a project. And thank you, Alexandra for supporting and highlighting others along your journey. ๐๐พ Hopefully you will have time to enter a contest or two here. I miss reading your work. We all have. ๐
Beautiful, Tribute and well deserve.
โ๏ธWhy did I portray you as aged, dear friend? Because to me, the most beautiful Madonnas in the world have wrinkles. Their hands are gnarled from grabbing loved ones to keep them from falling off cliffs. Their eyes and lips have laughter lines that camouflage pain from love and loss. Novel, I see you as a Madonna. ๐๐ฝ I also look within your heart and see the feisty young girl, ready to fight with only a momentโs notice - to fight against injustice and invisibility, but you are so ready to put down the sword, embrace peace, and hear, โWelcome home!โ When I first discovered Vocal, I was looking for professional writing workshops, steps to become the next great author. Instead, I found communities of lovely people that I admired. There are countless Vocal writers I could mention here. Your prose and poetry inspire me, still. Your stories became memories that I hold close, very close. When I wrote โNola, Cara Dharr, and the Soldier,โ it was a tribute to show you, Dharsheena and Lamar that I have not forgotten your generosity of support though I have been missing for years from Vocal pages. You were among the first to say, โWelcomeโ and applaud my fictional land of BeggleDert. BD is Home - where good triumphs over evil. I expect to launch the book in September through my start-up LLC, Star Epics. When you are ready, Novel, your book will be next. Thank you, Lady Novel! You are simply phenomenal and you are loved!!!!! ๐โ๏ธ๐
A beautifully written tribute, Novel, and a great entry!
Oh wow! This is so wonderfully written with a bit pf humor in-between. Alexa sounds like a lovely person. Hope I get to publish a thing or two...it sure is encouraging to think of publishing with a Vocal creator, publishing sounds so daunting. Well done N.
"Love is my power, Love is my right..." Much love and respect to you friend...
awesome tribute
What a gorgeous tribute to a dynamite and talented lady! ๐ซถ๐พ๐
