Stay True to Your Art and Not the Trends

Writing as an art provides valuable expression for society.

While everyone has different reasons for writing, true artists shouldn’t write what others want.

Some say, “Write what people want to read according to the trends,” which might expedite making money, yet isn’t a true artistic expression.

What Art Is

Art is an expression the artist wants others to understand or experience.

True art expresses a unique and original message or meaning to others, as this is the artist’s work and contribution to society and community.

Writing can be an art form, expression through the written word; an article is a piece of art, expressing the artist’s unique creation to others in society and humanity.

Notes on AI Art

Some may specialize in AI art as though it were written word art, yet without human expression, it can only be AI art at best.

The imitation of art by robots doesn’t express what a unique human would, rather, it expresses the culmination of all human information and knowledge — see the difference?

Business/Trades or Art

Again, there are many types of writers, especially online, so I’m not saying one is good or bad, just clarifying the difference between art and business.

Business writing, technical writing, and marketing are different in the traditional meaning of art; even non-fiction is different than fiction in its measure of artistic creativity.

Having a skill or trade with words is great, yet it isn’t art any more than a house painter or the trades are art. However, I do believe each trade and work effort is a form of art in some measure, as each person’s unique efforts are added to society on many different creative levels.

Art, as a creative way of expressing a society or people, helps people reflect upon important things that bring value overall. It helps people understand themselves better and what they are part of in the bigger picture.

True Art is Powerful

True art helps people be free.

Art helps us express things otherwise not possible.

The powers to be want to control art because it influences people so strongly. It is a threat to their illusions and deceptions.

This is why tyrannical countries stifle art and put fakes and sellouts in the mainstream as artists. True art can still be found locally and regionally at smaller levels, but will never be allowed to organically reach the masses, even through online channels.

Conclusion

Stay true to what you want to express, rather than writing what other people want. Whether many people want to read it or not, writing artists need to express their unique views and creative meanings, as this is what brings value to others.

In the end, this is the true strategy of success with writing as an art form.

The Final Deception is Conservative and Religious

Politics are going according to the NWO's deceptive plan. Politics, History, and the NWO I’ve been taking a break from talking about politics lately, yet that doesn’t mean I feel any different about it. Being someone who doesn’t support Trump or the Dems makes it hard to get any traction with an audience. The truth is more nuanced than most people can handle. It is easier to simply pick a side and believe it without much critical thinking. Trump is speaking the common sense views of the majority of Americans who still have half a brain left after the many decades of brainwashing we’ve been subjected to. The big data algorithms have been gathering the views of every American, compiling them into meticulously organized data reports, so they know exactly what most people want to hear. The left are those who have accepted the brainwashed agenda without any critical thinking. They are the useful idiots the NWO has used brilliantly to create most of the problems that t...

An Ode to Grandpa Lee

An old-time pioneer amid modern vanity and "progress." The man stood tall in the wind with the sun beating down on his flat-brim cowboy hat. He was a working man, focused on his pioneer family in the western country they called home. Building and designing structures high and wide, the man skipped across wooden beams high in the air, under shadows cast only by moving clouds; wide open spaces watched the scene as death-defying feats were carried out in relative obscurity, as just another day of work. The man was an old-timer with relatively few years to boast, a before his time pioneer with an adventurous and loving wife plotting business in sagebrush lands far beyond the hyped city life bustling with seemingly meaningless activities. His skin was as leather, scorched in the sun and beaten with high winds containing drifting sand mixed with alkaline dirt. The dry mountain air in the high desert cleansed his heart with comfortable respite from the high temps and harsh weather e...

Brainwashed Into Low-Functioning Morons

When being normal is deemed crazy in a land of morons. Stay in the present and hold the line, as the machine-gun fire of death could be heard ever so clearly. People were falling dead and maimed with every shot given by the hateful enemy. The gruesome scene was covered in scarlet and purple with precious jewels in goblets of wine. The ancient agenda, the lockstep effort, and the social engineering program were ongoing and ever-expanding into the ears and souls of hapless victims, born and raised in the lie. How would they ever know? When the truth was told to them, they simply heard nonsense, madness — how could that be? Meanwhile, the war was waging, silent weapons, deceitful explanations told by greedy sell-outs, ignorant fools, heartless controllers, and brainwashed simpletons. The society was full of low-functioning morons — the diabolical objective was working. Behind pretense and seemingly logical rational, the management of the morons continued into the dawn of a new age; a gold...

Old Cars Are Better than New Ones

Cars are getting too complex with technology. Older and less expensive cars are better than new ones because they don’t overly rely on computer technology to function. What’s going to happen to these new computer cars in 20 years? They’ll be in the junkyard, as the computer was too expensive to fix. What’s worse, in 20 years, the oldest cars on the road will be around 20–30 years old — i.e., the new cars now! That means all cars will have too much technology built in — every non-manual digital function from the computer can go out and stop working, while manual issues are easier to fix. Another main reason why I like older cars is to have more freedom from control. Newer cars with computer junk can be shut off remotely from anywhere, hacked into, and governments and corporations can deny access to use. Why would I pay the exorbitant cost of owning a new car when: It will be in the junkyard in 15–20 years Can be controlled remotely It is expensive Are difficult/expensive to repair or ge...
