[Editorial] Worries of a writer

You are already a writer, perhaps not yet published but you are a writer.

You write because you have to; so don’t stop – just get organized in submitting your work.

A Moonchild's Blog

As a soon to be nineteen-year-old writer (7th of March for those who are interested), right now my future terrifies me. I am a university student studying English and Creative writing, and to be honest I hate my course. Who would have thought a writer would hate an English course!! “It’s perfectly suited for you”. Hmm.. Yes, although that is true, but something in my gut is telling me not to continue the course and be a further £20,000 in debt after. Its inexplainable….

Perhaps one of the reasons may be the ongoing pandemic. Yes, it’s not ideal in the slightest. The Open University in the U.K charges around £6,000 per year for online learning, which is what everyone is currently doing for £9,000. But having a degree is what everyone should do right?

La Nature est le Vrai Joyau !

Cannibal gold … Our elders did not know about money … Money does not protect us … it does not create our joy. For whites, it’s different. These whites are earth eaters covered in epidemic fumes.

« l’or cannibale … Nos aînés ne connaissaient pas l’argent… L’argent ne nous protège pas… il ne crée pas notre joie. Pour les Blancs, c’est différent. Ces blancs sont des mangeurs de terre couverts de fumées épidémiques.

« Nous avons fait du tort, corrompu et ruiné… Nous sommes coupables, nous avons trahi… Nous avons volé, nous avons calomnié… Nous avons perverti et égaré… Nous avons été faux… Nous nous sommes coupés de la vérité, et la réalité existe pour nous divertir. Nous…
