Arroe Collins Like It's Live

When it’s extremely difficult to make up your mind.  Having the power of choice can actually weaken someone.  On this episode we’re going to put focus on the choice to fall witness to yet another political figure walking away from the position they were voted into office to serve.  Plus…facing a wall of burned-out coworkers.  What’s our choice in trying to stay productive as well as positive?  I’m Arroe.  Life is a series of choices.  Who decides when you’re not making it the right choice?  Is it the fear of going wrong?  The greatest lessons in life are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts.  It’s time to reopen your heart. Having a choice is a daily gift.  On this highway we learn to trust mirages… What is the choice?

An explosive inside account of how the Democratic establishment used every weapon in its arsenal to subvert the will of the people and stop Bernie Sanders's presidential bid in 2016-told by his chief strategist who witnessed it all firsthand.One question haunted the American left after the 2016 election: how could a grassroots movement that drew massive crowds and shattered fundraising records fail? The answer exposes fundamental flaws in American democracy itself.In How the Democrats Screwed Bernie, Sanders's chief strategist in the 2016 Democratic primary unravels how the "Clinton Machine"-a network of operatives, Super PACs, and media allies-in consort with the Democratic National Committee deployed dark money and dirty tricks to stop a wildly popular outsider candidate. A candidate who may well have been the peoples' choice and defeated Donald Trump.You'll discover how deeply the entrenched Democratic establishment orchestrated opposition research campaigns, the true story behind the voter file crisis that nearly derailed the campaign, and why primary rules are deliberately structured to favor insiders over often more compelling outsiders.This isn't just another campaign memoir. Nor is it just a reflection on the doomed Sanders's candidacy ten years hence. It is a cautionary tale about a crisis in American democracy that is becoming more urgent by the day. As voters grapple with growing distrust of political institutions, How the Democrats Screwed Bernie reveals how our democratic processes really work, how they can be manipulated by those with enough money to game the system, and how the people can make their voices heard again.This is the story the Democratic establishment doesn't want you to read.

-Missed Opportunity- I love sharing conversations.  Hosting requires show prep.  My podcasting platforms feature thousands of guests.  What you don’t have access to are the missed opportunities. The show prep was completed.  The conversation didn’t happen.  I keep all my notes!

I hope to locate a destination…

Although we don't really write physical U.S. mail delivered letters anymore, this phrase continues to live on. Nothing to write home about. It's all-over social media and for some reason we care when years past that handwritten letter would've been trashed.

THE DEAD OF SUMMER: Ollie Veltman is finally coming home to the quaint island of Anchor’s Mercy after a year away while his mom battled cancer. It should be a celebration—his mom is cancer free, and she’s determined to have the best summer ever—but Ollie’s (now ex) best friends think he abandoned them, and he’s returning with a lot of questions. Because for a place that’s perfect on the surface, a secret rots below the waves. A secret that could explain his mom’s illness, and the illness of so many other locals. Ollie’s desperate search for the truth turns life-or-death when a storm descends upon the island. In its wake, a long-sunken horror rises . . . Now Ollie is being held in isolation aboard a military hospital ship in the harbor. They say he’s a survivor, but they only know half the story. The truth is more monstrous than Ollie ever believed, and he suspects his saviors aren’t here to save anyone. Only Ollie can stop what’s coming, but that means getting back to Anchor’s Mercy before it vanishes, taking with it everyone he has ever loved.

Digging deeper into the channels of where a writing instrument was located gives the author a better view of who was holding onto the instrument before the creative process turned into a story. Suddenly this writing instrument has a connection to the early 20's of Ford and then a secret missile making plant. Then, its 103 degrees and the pen is taking a huge hit in the forest floor. All this before sharing an amazing talk with a beneath the soil expert.

Stone Heart...This is a bit of a departure as this falls in the women's fiction genre.
The story follows Lauren Stone, a successful singer and recovering addict, who learned the hard way that people love her for what she is, not who she is–everyone except for Danny, the ex who broke her heart. On the brink of a career crisis, Lauren has a chance encounter with Danny. They realize their spark is still there, but the risks of pursuing a relationship are higher than ever before for both of them Life is rarely delineated along black and white lines, and I enjoy writing characters who find themselves in morally gray areas between what’s considered right and wrong. I think most readers can relate to having to make hard choices, knowing there could be consequences, and struggling to make the best decision–especially when it comes to relationships.
And finding a way to tell Lauren’s story, which includes a central romantic entanglement, but isn’t a romance in the strictest definition of the genre, was a thought-provoking challenge for me as a writer.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   What will be federally legalized first, full access to marijuana or psychedelic alternatives?    I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…
