About vernontalks - "going to the edge and back, one word at a time."
This podcast revolves around me and my goal to become an established author and screenplay writer. I currently blog my adventures on my website : vernonwrites.com , and have recently started this podcast to verbally connect with my audience.
In my podcasts, I am going to share everyday epiphanies and life lessons I have learned on my journey and hopefully inspire others, as well as myself, in the process. In some of my episodes, I am going to read personally selected writings and share a style that I have spent years trying to master.
I look forward to the adventures that await us!
In the last podcast of vernontalks Season 2, I welcome everyone back after a summer hiatus and reveal intimate details about the premiere of my second short film titled "Inside Out", the ending sequel to my first short film, "Upside Down". (both films can be located on my YouTube page '3 Castl3s Film').
After a year in which I : severely injured my foot in a work related accident in March, sold our home in July and moved a state away for a better job opportunity, then moved us back due to certain issues that arose and me securing a better job for me and my family back in our home state, needless to say I have a lot of things to chat about and discuss when it comes to life and its curveballs.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this way and can only imagine the stories all of you could share with me.
Not only do I inspire myself by getting some verbal weight off my shoulders, but I hope my level headed revelations have some way of inspiring others who may be listening to my words. I ask myself 'where to go from here?' and seriously contemplate out loud where that direction may be me for my life and my art (vernonwrites.com).
Where does destiny leads us if we let her? I guess there's only one way to find out.
I appreciate all of you. I hope all of your dreams are coming true. I hope you have great mental health and are in a place in your life where you are happy and content. Your time means the world to me, and I hope you never, ever feel like you are walking alone in this life.
You are not.
Trust me!

Don't Look Down
In this podcast, I dig into the premise of the phrase "Don't Look Down" and how it applies to me and my current struggle - getting second and third degree burns on my foot and having to get a skin graft to repair the damage. I not only give eye witness testimony of what I encountered in the days following my accident, but I also discuss the mental, physical, and spiritual battle that exists with this type of injury.
What does one do when faced with pain and the unknown that we call the future? Do you give up? Do you keep climbing your mountain? Do you question yourself? Do you reflect? Do you become angry? Do you let fear creep in? Do you remain confident?
After going through a traumatic event, some people would say they are no longer the same person they were before. Some would say they are a better version of what they used to be. Some might confess to being the same person.
I know where I stand and am proud to know, when I'm nervous about being at a high, foreign elevation, all I really need to do is stare at the incredible view in front of me and not do the one thing that my body tempts me into doing - looking down. From here on out, I have to promise myself to keep my line of sight facing forward so it is easier for me to take that first step and walk.
The lesson was simple and it was there, in front of me, the entire time.

Going Forward
In this episode, I talk about the New Year 2022 and all of the things in between.
Where does life have you right now? Using your mirrors to look behind you? Stuck in neutral while you check your gauges and GPS? Or looking forward at the undiscovered landscape that lies in the distance?
Life is not always easy (especially this day and age), and we need to be thankful for good health and the friends and family that get us through our tough spots. We are in this journey together, and we can do great things if we allow ourselves to.
Every human being on this earth is answered in three simple forms: 'Yes', 'No', and 'Wait'.
Which one is hardest for you to hear and digest?
I know what mine is!
