While it is interesting to discuss my literary journey, one of my greatest passions is to cover real societal issues that affect our lives in profound ways. I’ve been told that my novels are spellbinding and historically informative, weaving intricate narratives that resonate with readers on a deeper level. However, covering real-life issues is even more satisfying to me, as it allows me to directly engage with the complexities of human experience. When I started my blog, it was with the intention of covering a mixture of topics – the writing process and experience, nostalgic moments, and coping with real-life issues that many individuals face daily. I strive to focus on the fact that, whatever the topic, someone in society can garner some insight or coping strategies to navigate their unique challenges. By sharing personal anecdotes, research, and thoughtful reflections, I aim to create a safe space for dialogue and understanding. Some of the topics covered so far include the following:
- Navigating the Avenues of Change
- Identifying your ride or die
- Embracing the stages of Life – Menopause
- Living a cleaner lifestyle – Part 1 and II
- The emotions of writing – Part 1 & II
- When or what do I name my book
- Dissecting my writing style within a cultural framework
- Making a book a page turner
- Start writing and keep the momentum going
- From writing to publishing: My journey as an author
In keeping with my original intention, I created a comprehensive list of topics I would like to cover for upcoming blog posts. Some topics may overlap somewhat; however, each topic is designed to bring new insight into our world and, hopefully, offer valuable coping skills along with a fresh perspective on societal views. As we navigate through these complex times, it’s essential to explore various themes, including mental health awareness, the impact of social stress, and the importance of community support. Additionally, I aim to delve into the significance of self-care practices, the role of resilience in facing adversity, and how cultural diversity enriches our understanding of different viewpoints. Some of the topics I plan to cover include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Dealing with trauma – death, divorce, job loss
- Showing support during a loss
- Destigmatizing mental challenges
- Managing Anxiety levels
- What are scary thoughts trying to tell us?
