Some have a dream and complain that they can’t fulfill it, others follow it until it happens
What I will write in this article is a projection of my inner world, my mental patterns, and my life experience so far. Please do not take what I will write as an absolute truth but only as a personal opinion, a part of what I think and what I am, a part that I share with you.

Thank You Vocal
Introduction This morning I got up and checked the last story that I shared on Vocal. It was very experimental for me and I had intended for it to be a story based on one of my Tarot decks, the Occult Deck, but it actually turned out to be more like a reading rather than a story. A friend asked me if I ever did readings and I said no, I didn't really know what I was doing with them but just love how beautiful some of these decks are. This was the story.

For I am my own damn God.
On August 11th, 2014 Robin Williams, a man known lovingly by millions for his unparalleled comedic ability, took his own life at the age of 63. I was 19 years old at the time, and for the most part never really concerned myself with the lives, or deaths, of celebrities. The death of Robin Williams, however, stabbed at my gut like a greasy dive bar meal and 17 too many Tecate cervezas. I’d grown up watching this man stand in front of crowds numbering in the thousands as he masterfully guided their imaginations into depths that only he could unearth. This divine ability, along with Hollywood’s better days, culminated in films that grip one's attention by the shoulders, ceasing the worries of the day by headbutting you in the face with humor.

How I Lost My Sense of Smell For Good
I’m four years old, and we are on a big trip to a game reserve in Zimbabwe. Imagine the most beautiful setting you’ve ever seen - every cliche of a bush camp you’ve ever come across. Cozy huts with thatched rooves, nestled underneath tall baobab trees. A central fire pit, with comfy benches around it. And in every direction: miles of untouched bush, teeming with wildlife.

Heading Off To The Library
Libraries are a treasure trove of knowledge. Currently, there are nineteen thousand public and one hundred thousand school libraries currently operating in the US. They estimate libraries make, on average, 2.3 billion dollars a year. 311 million people live near a library, and 171 million of them are registered, active users of them. Every year they will see 1.35 billion visits from a wide range of people as young as three years old. This month is National Sign-Up Month at your local library, and here are some ways it’ll help you through doomsday.

Team Carrie Powwow For Hope Fundraiser
This was the 11th Annual Powwow For Hope Fundraiser and probably the 8th year of Team Carrie. I sold calendars, cookbooks, another calendar with recipes, one year a book about cancer, another year a book with Anishinabe stories and the Ojibwe language, and a few years with a book about diabetes.

Kicked in Ribs
I, coincidentally, am the back-of-the-coffee-shop mystery. I bring thrifted books, sharpies, and sharp eyes. I scribble blackout poetry and sip on iced coffee and listen to James Arthur and pop my fingers again and again. My tote bags are overflowing with straw wrappers, Midliner highlighters, and forgotten stories.
