An Outlet to Tell Your Side of the Story

Hello Everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful start to the weekend. There is so much happening in the world that one has little time to think about much else. Everyday, where I am, the rain pounds, causing so much havoc to the environment and raising hardships even further. If it's not the weather, it is the countless topics on war, distress to children, or the rise of prices in essential items (or falling) as highlighted in the news. 

One thing leads to another. The war can start in the far corners of the world, but eventually, the planet will face adversity in some form or another. Do you think the same way?

Here's an article published on Medium:

Title: An Outlet to Tell Your Side of the Story. Read the full story here: https://medium.com/@shobanagomes/an-outlet-to-tell-your-side-of-the-story-ffb15829d203?sk=5cdc20d4f69027d5e3cc2dd90db41e42


Writing is an avenue to tell your side of the story unless it is fiction.

We live in a world where people are easily influenced by stories that are more or less half-truths or worse, untrue about someone or something that takes place. Usually, if it is about an alarming incident, panic sets in.

This happens because they don’t care to verify the facts of the matter with the concerned parties before they judge or believe what they are told.

Fake news is rampant, especially on the internet, because people believe published materials are trustworthy information. However, when I research some topics of interest, especially with the help of AI tools, I find that some information is misrepresented. Have you come across research materials that have misguided or misrepresented the topic of discussion?

The Faction Revolution Modules 1-3 (A revolutionary method of storytelling)

The Faction Revolution Modules 1-3 (A revolutionary method of storytelling)
Fiction writing, the traditional way, can feel too distant, while traditional non-fiction writing can feel too mundane, almost boring to the readers. This is where Faction is the bridge, providing the legitimacy of facts with an emotional touch to a narrative. In this module, we move beyond "contemporary storytelling" into "Truth+Fiction, a revolutionary storytelling method that has worked for me to tell my stories. An unquestionable approach to adding facts within a fiction genre will allow you to preserve a veritable record of human history within a framework that is easy to consume and imagine. Faction is a pragmatic approach to a world losing its grip on historical truth. It has turned into a connective arc that ensures history remains alive, vibrant, believable, and, most importantly, relevant to the people of tomorrow. It is another way of ensuring that historical events and other factual information are widely read and disseminated.
