Coronavirus/CORVID-19

Hello all,

I am a firm believer that panic is what the mass media thrives on to get their messages across and truthfully, I find this no different. Yes, the coronavirus is serious and should be handled with the respect we handle all serious medical threats. But we should also keep in mind that it is our societal duty to be informed and not rely on numbers to scare us.

People have died, people are sick, this is contagious. Still, we can work on our self-care, allow others as well as ourselves to BUY cleaning and health products such as sanitizer, toilet paper, and disinfectant. Hording these products do not protect you, but allow more to get sick and spread. 

Be safe, cautious, alert, but DO NOT PANIC. We will get through this and build ourselves back.

Hola,

I just wanted to say that the first two "chapters" (not really chapters, but the Prologue and intro) are up and are at the left hand side under the About Me section. I'd appreciate it if people could give it a read, comment, question, critique if you can. As a forewarning, I do not have a regular schedule set up yet, but I am continuously writing so hopefully I can update regularly. Gracias!

Hello there and welcome to the Marley H.C. Blog.

I'll admit, this is not my first rodeo in this blog world, but at the first time I dabbled, I was at a stage in life where I typed a few words and expected thousands, if not millions, of people to see it overnight. When that was not the reaction I received, I quit. That was almost 10 years ago.
I don't have any data or testimonies, but arguably, I still believe I've grown tremendously as a writer and have become better. My discipline is still shaky, as I've been learning how to "adult" and take on more responsibility than I can handle at times, but I feel more determined now.

I think a lot of it has to do with me coming to a crossroads; finally ready to stop crying, to stop huddling under a hoard of blankets, to wake up and focus on more self-care. I'm not perfect at it, but I'm getting there. I'm feeling better and stronger and I give so much credit to my little chromebook, waiting for me diligently, as I open a fresh document and start typing away.

There's this idea I've had for a long time now and it's been feeling really good to put it into verbs, nouns, adverbs, and adjectives. Please take a moment to read, hit me up with a comment or question, and let's go on a journey.

Thank you!
Marley H.C.
