V is for Viral

This is absolutely the most important thing you will view in the next two and a half minutes (assuming you watch the entire thing)The concept of viral is something that fascinates and enthralls me. If you could figure out the formula, you could get people to do your...

U is for Ubiquitous

Ubiquitous: /yo͞oˈbikwətəs/ Adjective: Present, appearing, or found everywhere: “his ubiquitous influence”Just like these actors that I think would make excellent leads if I were to cast for my story Serious Game 2.0.But I’ve jumped the gun a little....

T is for Thermopylae

Other ranking ‘m’ words that almost made the list today:MoneyMotivationManipulationMax (who is still pissed off at me for changing her name to Rae. Sorry, hon, but I already spent an entire book explaining how one gets Ronnie out of Uriel. I’m not...
