Hello World! The Latest on Site Progress and Blog Focus

Apollo’s Muses. Calliope, the muse of eloquent epic poetry and writing, is the one under attack in today’s world. . .

(Revised May 5, 2019)

Welcome to L A Williams’ West Wind , a blog and writing website dedicated to “advocating today for a better world tomorrow.” Since the first of July, the site has been in the rigorous travails of construction, development and cosmetic polishing, still is, and may always be, because we would never want it to get stale and stagnant. I am happy to say that I have reached a milestone in that the website is now fully functional, and I will soon be looking for writers, artists, photographers, and other contributors and subscribers who may want to post their thoughts, products or creations and demonstrate their talents here, or perhaps just enjoy the blog and the writing. But first I will have to write a set of guidelines and a manifesto of purpose(s).

All this means that I will be able to use the website for its intended purposes rather than as a construct in progress. Improvements and expansion will always be a part of the site, of course, but at least now I will be doing the things I like and love the most, and that includes verbally battling against all the political cronyism, conspiracies, corruption, collusion and covert crime that has put America and the world in a dangerous and desperate situation that threatens our very social fabric as civilized human beings.

And then there is Gaia’s world to advocate for because Mother Earth is our common home and we humans are ravaging Her once pristine habitat to the point that we, and our fauna and flora friends, may soon no longer be able to survive on such a polluted planet. There are already huge ocean dead zones along many coastlines, particularly in America and Europe where no sea life can survive, and certainly environmental death is rapidly coming ashore. We all have an obligation to protect the natural environment that was gifted to us so long ago in the latter stages of creation. Yet we, the intellectual ones, are demeaning, damaging, despoiling, and even destroying the only home we have. We call it progress, but it is really just mankind’s parasitic gluttony and greed. Extinction is not a pretty thing, and it is sad that we forever fail to learn from our mistakes of the past. When we become too much for Mother Earth to be comfortable with, She will shake off our parasitic pandemic like water off a dog.

In 1839 Edward Bulwer-Lytton said ,”The pen is mightier than the sword.” We shall see. The 4th Estate is under an overt full frontal brutal attack in America and other countries, and I, for one, am here to help fight for the cause. The court of public opinion will be the final judge in this fascistic authoritarianism rampage of chaos and anarchy that may be the most serious issue to ever threaten the concept of democracy and freedom. Stay tuned, my friends. Speak freely boldly and clearly and write eloquently of that which you speak. ~llaw
