Welcome
Contemplations
A New Home for the Mindful Voice
I am happy to introduce a publication designed for the writer new to Medium. These are contemplations and journeys in the writing experience distinctly for the writer who is experimenting.
Humans all have stories to tell.
Although first written words were all about tracking economic trade transactions, story telling in the oral tradition quickly thereafter found a home in codified symbols. How we use symbols in a way that either complicates or simplifies our lives continues to be great substance for discussion. We do that here.
Writing as a way of expression is a relatively new phenomenon for humans, in the grand scheme of things. So we are all learning as we go.
As your editor in chief, I will maintain a traditional editor’s role. That is, I will be tough on things like grammar, punctuation and usage. We have a team of volunteer editors here to assist as well.
Contemplate requires the following (look here if you need help with this):
- Title (using “Big T” in editor) in title case
- Subtitle (using “Little T” in editor) in sentence case
- Kicker (any case)
- Featured image following the subtitle
