Waterfall's World

First of all, I would like to thank you all for your love, support and buying my book, The Ecelctic Mind of Vee . I would also would like to thank my mom, Judy Newbern, for proofreading and editing my debut book. Anyway, I have been working on about a few more books and a screenplay or two. I just have to do a lot of research and writing my manuscript. I also have been reading a lot of books about self publishing. Especially about self publishing at the digital age I live in. Adevertising, marketing, promotion, taxes, etc are a definite must in order to increase my book sales and how self publishing works. There are a couple of books I have been reading by Joanna Penn. They are called Business For Authors and How To Make A Living Your Writing: With Books, Blogging and More. I will keep you posted. Oh...HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH!

 Remember when I was going to write of book of poetry? Remember when I was having trouble coming up with a title for this book? Well, after years of writer's block, blood, sweat tears, and editing from my mom, my debut book, The Eclectic Mind of Vee , has finally been released. It might become available in other outlets. Those outlets might be the following: Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Walmart, Books A Million, etc.

On Janurary 6, 2021, Pro-Trump protestors breached the Capitol building. Washington DC has been placed under lockdown. A 6pm curfew has been enforced until 6am the next day. One woman was shot and killed. Trump told them to go home and in and that they were "special." Here is my opinion on the situation. Those protestors are on the wrong side of history. Inaugration is about to happen in two weeks and those protesters are in denial. Do you know what else I saw?. NEW COVID-19 CASES! Nothing was social distancing at all. I bet some people are going to lose there jobs, families, financial aid and/or even kicked out of school. Now, let this black and brown people. There would be water house sprayed on people, tear gas, the Capital would be on fire, arrests, beatings by authorities and even more deaths. This has been one of the most stupidest moments in American history.

 I know that 2020 has been a rough year. However, there have rougher years and the world has faced worse than. I noticed that every time there's a economic crisis, war, pandemic, or any other hard , people talked it's "the end of days." There was a theory that the world was going to end on December 21, 2012. Only God knows when the world's to end already. I feel like that poem from the Tupac Shakur called A Rose From Concrete. In my opinion, the concrete represents hard times and the rose represents myself. I also think about the businesses that started during a hard time in history. For example, popcorn was introduced in movie theaters during the Great Depression. If I ever find myself going through a hard, I must either survive or thrive. I noticed social media that due to the COVID-19, couples are having something called micro weddings. During the Great Depression and World War II, couple did something similar. It was called eloping or a trip to the justice of ...

 I do not have children of my own at all. However, I was spending a lot time with my nephew while my older sister's at work and I learned on a lot. Even The Holy Bible tells children to obey there parents, it also tells a parent how to treat their the children. For example, there is Leviticus 19:29, Ephesians 6:4 and Matthew 18:6. They taught me that I should be careful of how I should treat young people in general. Here are some advice I would like to impart on you. 1. LISTEN TO YOUR CHILDREN! I put that in capital letters for a reason. If you don't learn to your children, the following will: a therapist, a counselor, their friends, their spouse, their boyfriend or girlfriend, etc. Especially when it's time to have "The Talk."  2 . Don't put too much pressure your kids. Your kids are already in enough pressure as it is from school, their peers, social media and the world. So parents why add more. That would just being up having high blood pressure when deali...

So little and so much has happened since the last time I posted on this blog. Four years, on November 2016, Donald J. Trump was elected to be President of the United States of America. It was an election  I would never forget. I had never felt such of a range of emotions in my life.  I remember the weather was cold and cloudy that day. I went to my nearest polling place and voted. After I got home, my heart was beating for the rest of the day and night. I did not get much sleep that night either. There was a weird feeling in my stomach that I could not describe. Then...the news come. The next very next morning, I felt really depressed and scared at the same time. I was scared for not only the future of the United State of America but the world was well.I was scared that the United States of America would by something out of a dystopian novel like 1984 by George Orwell. I was scared for myself, my family and my friends. Now here's the depressed part. I felt bad both emotionall...

I have had my struggles with the job search as long as I can remember. However, I have heard stories from people who lost their jobs or even got laid off and it was no fault of their own. Here is how you could lose your job and it is not your fault. Please keep in mind the this post does not apply to those who lost his or her job due to misconduct. 1. Change in your industry. It could be a technological change or you entire industry disappear. 2. Economic downturn. A recession or depression can have in effect on your occupation. 3. Budget cuts. A company can run out of money to operate. 4. Outsourced. Your job could move to another country. 5. Automation. Now this is currently happening at an accelerated rate. Product of the Post Before I go, I would to tell you about a book I that checked out in my local public library a few times.  50 Ways to Get a Job: An Unconventional Guide to Finding Work on Your Terms (the book above) by can help you out after get over your...
