How Vocal Media’s Algorithm Really Works
The Read Algorithm: When a View Becomes a “Read” What Vocal Officially Says a Read Is Vocal’s help center defines a “read” as a visit where the reader has engaged with your content, not just clicked the link.

YN
1996 When pavements got hot in the summer time, that called for drivers to drop tops and crank up AC units in their four wheeled stallions. Twenty-four-year-old Gregorian Vault leaned back in his seat into the “ghost position.” If you rolled up beside him, it would appear as if no one drove the car with his seat reclined at such an extreme angle. He looked lanky and light skinned. He sported three hundred and sixty degree waves.

The Bridge That Stayed Standing Too Long
The county left the bridge in place because removing it cost more than admitting it was dangerous. That was the joke in town, though nobody laughed when they said it. They said it in the feed store, in line at the gas station, over coffee at Mae’s Diner while rain ticked against the windows and the river rose another inch on the chalk-marked post behind the sheriff’s office.

Azaleas
circling the golf course like a vulture, I light near a lover, Fly through pretension to the packy, hug a fantastic neck and give a book.

Chapter one
The memory was still fresh in my brain, it felt like yesterday. I looked down at the living jewelry curling around my wrist making its way up to dance through my fingers.

SOOO Frustrated Because of Glitchy Emoji Insertion 😠😠😡
This isn't a poem. This is a 444-word plea for assistance (+ venting). Okay. I fully admit I am overreacting. But I've fought to accomplish something for a solid 90 minutes+ and I'm at my wits end. I wrote a petition to Vocal, but I doubt they will respond for at least 48 hrs. And on this particular issue, I'm skeptical that when they finally do respond, they'll give precise instructions on how to overcome this. I will be happy and chagrined if I'm wrong.

The Strawberry Chapter 14
The Strawberry Chapter 14 By Katherine Aguilar Moments in time can be captured and let go. I discarded old, stale seeds left over from others, which had done nothing for me, and replaced them with healthy seeds. I water them every day and share them with others.
