I’ve been given the opportunity to speak at the Frome Writers Collective – on Zoom of course.
Nervous. Nah! Of course I am – and absolutely petrified! I’ll be way out of my comfort zone. But it has to be done. I keep telling myself its good experience. I just hope I’m not a total washout.
My aim to is share experiences – and hear about other journeys and projects. I look forward to hearing about everyone else’s project
Wishing everyone a good evening.
The whole school thought I was going to star on Drake and Josh: In second grade, I told everyone that I was leaving school before next semester to move to Hollywood to play Megan’s cousin from Vermont on Drake and Josh. At first I just told my best friend, but then the whole school found out. I had people coming up to me and asking me for my autograph and a teacher even asked for a picture with me. When I showed up on the first day of school in third grade, I told everyone that the show was going off the air after the season finished (even though I had no knowledge of when it was ending), and so they wouldn’t need me. AND THE SHOW ENDED AFTER THAT SEASON AND EVERYONE BELIEVED ME UP UNTIL LIKE 6TH GRADE BUT NOW MY BEST FRIEND WILL NEVER LET ME FORGET ABOUT IT AND I’M SO ANGRY.
Hi, It seems you have a vivid imagination and brave enough to face people. I guess your friend felt foolish for letting the cat out of the bag and maybe wont be so keen to ‘share’ what you thought was in confidence in the first place? But what a story! It made me smile. I wouldn’t have thought of doing that. All those autographs BEFORE you are famous! Don’t get angry, get even. Write about it as if you were in Drake and Josh – imagine yourself in Hollywood. Maybe there’s a little intrigue, a person you meet along the way. A story behind the story? Go on, give it a go. If not, maybe try something else. Writing is good for the soul, and I’ve said it before, it’s free therapy. Maybe you can let go of the anger. It’s good to have a friend.
With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
or copyright violation? My site has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either authored
myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping
it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any
ways to help reduce content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.
Thanks Trista for asking. This is a worldwide issue. Sometimes it is done maliciously, other times without thinking. Copywrite is a way forward but no guarantee. Unless you do hit the soaring heights of authors like King, Rowling, Grisham etc. Then you have money and the power of the publisher behind you and that means law suits against the offender. WordPress protects a bit when it comes to blogging, but it doesn’t stop horrible trolls. I’ve had a few. Why? I don’t get their mind set. Whatever you do be polite. Remind them that they have taken your work and you would appreciate quotes that it was you in the first place. Its said that there are those who steal, they have no imagination other than to steal, plagiarise, or be rude. If I ever quote someone I try my best to ensure that I have done it with reference to them. It would only ever be a “quote” with name attached, providing there is one. You may have seen Mahatma Gandhi on one of my blogs. It is clear and evident that is his words, not mine. I hope this helps?

A fascinating discussion is worth comment. There’s no doubt that that you need to
write more about this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but typically people
do not discuss such topics. To the next! Many thanks!!

If I can be cheeky may I ask you share my link with your friends and family – There is a kindle flash sale at the moment
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Secrets-Shame-Shoebox-L-Griffin-ebook/dp/B0971T3RGC
I’ve been surfing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like
yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content
as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.
That’s great Bernadine, really grateful for the feedback!
Can I possibly be cheeky and ask if you could share a link to your family and friends for me?
