Playing games taught me more about leadership than most “leadership books”.
Pattern spotting, fast decisions, dealing with chaos, adapting under pressure… it’s all there!

🎵 Cliff's Song of the Day 🎵

"Honestly" by Stryper

Listen on Apple Music (https://music.apple.com/us/album/honestly/1440914389?i=1440914648)

This is the song that got me into Stryper back in high school in the 80's. Oddly, I wanted to listen to them so I borrowed a cassette from a friend of mine who was a big Stryper fan. My reason for wanting to listen to them was their colors, black and gold. Which also happened to be our high school colors. The first song that played when I put the cassette tape into my radio at home that night was Honestly and I was instantly hooked. Still a huge fan today!

Gotta decide if Wattpad has any use for me. I've been cross posting the same story on both Wattpad and Scribblehub, but only doing self promo posts that link to the Wattpad version.
Yet somehow the Scribblehub copy has way more engagement and views than Wattpad.
Maybe the genre I'm writing just doesn't suite the audience on Wattpad? Or my chapters are too long? or cause I'm a new account I'm just not possible to rank well in their visibility tools?
I can see that I get a bunch of traffic from the recently updated page on Scribblehub, very few people are searching for my kinds of works, but when they stumble upon it about 25% are giving it a go.
Maybe a romance story isn't worth reading until it's finished? Or maybe my writing is just bad? (always a possibility)

I spent 2 hours researching this as a sort of personal challenge, to see where my German's at. And I have, to be honest, very little to show for it (turns out, my German fucking sucks).

The one thing I found that shows any promise is the book "zusammen gehalten, Dissoziation, Identität, Struktur" by Paula Rabe. I couldn't find a digital copy, but if you manage to get one, I'd be really greatful if you could share it with me— it looks really interesting.

I also found a personal blog by an autistic plural individual, which you'll find at https://einblogvonvielen.org I found their blog through a book review they wrote for Rabe's book, and it's what made me want to read it myself. They may have other book reviews, I didn't check, mostly because I've spent long enough on this little side quest.

Other than that, I found:

• a couple of magazine articles, the kind that are geared towards the 'general public', which I doubt you'll get any use of but just in case, I'll link a few at the end;
• a video that runs along the same lines that made me realise my practical listening skills in German are nill, also linked at the bottom;
• and a fucktonne of psychiatric articles, because of course That would be in (over)abundance, and which I won't be linking.
