[Your Voice - VI]
If you use your voice, which you will if you’re open to it and practice, you will get pushback.
If it’s fiction, the pushback will be about wasting time. If it’s non-fiction, the pushback will be a plea to cause less of a stir.
If you use your voice to talk about you… you’ll still get pushback. Telling your own story in the form of memoir or autobiography, despite you being the final authority, inevitably receives complaints of embellishment.
In a world saturated with soundbites, clickbait, and cliches, communicating authentically with an ear to the ground and a finger on your own pulse threatens the still waters of superficiality.
