Censorship Over-Drive

Hello everyone, 
Today is the last time I will blog for a while or until I have a message so profound that I must share it with everyone. Also, I am getting ready to remove myself from the Facebook platform, as it truly is a waste of time (for me).

Sometime in 2018, I removed myself from all social media platforms as I took a full-time job and saw no need to promote my work. I hopped back onto the social media promotion platforms in 2023 to promote my 1st book, An Abomination That Caused Desolation, with the recommendation of my publisher. Promotion on social media wreaked havoc on my relationship with my significant other, and I wondered if it was a good thing to be scrolling and building a followers list. Yes, I received some sales for the book I was promoting, but if I am being honest, it was consuming my time with little financial, personal, or spiritual benefit. I see more bad than good with social media, and I believe it is the reason for so many relationship hookups, breakups, and the overall mental decay in society. People are becoming dissatisfied with their lives as they follow their favorite experts everything, spiritual gurus, or un-godly advice from friends.

This year has been extremely challenging spiritually, relationally, physically, and mentally. Broken cars, a broken heart, a broken existence, but the show must go on, they insist. It seemed the book I started writing a year ago was never going to be ready for publication. Some challenges I faced were the result of knowing too much and trying to be patient with those people closest to me. The book was slow to write, unlike my first book, and I attribute much of the writer's block to an onslaught of personal and spiritual attacks I felt the need to defend myself against. God was with me, but I failed to see the challenges were for growth, I see a clear path now.

I have not always been an extrovert, and honestly, I still don't think I am. I put myself "out there" because I am scared of being alone, and the fear of not being liked. I do feel that God (the divine spirit within our soul, mind, heart, and body) gave me an important task, to get to the bottom of spiritual chaos. Not just a journey for me, but for us, as we are all connected, and it appears that many people are dealing with the devil inside.

I was determined to have the newest book ready for September, as it would mark the 1st anniversary of the launch of An Abomination That Caused Desolation. Well... it didn't happen. To add insult to an already broken ego, the book would not be published unless I removed some controversial content. What is the content you may be asking?  I learned that we are not allowed to label certain groups and use names associated with secret societies and the banking system. It's censorship, free speech is an illusion. How convenient (sarcasm), so I rewrote about 6 paragraphs. It isn't a big deal, but it has slowed things down till maybe mid-December if all my ducks (or should I say, bucks?) align.

After several weeks of re-reading and editing, I must say, this is an excellent manuscript. It is heavy, as I deep-dive into the human condition, and our connection to the beast, the spirit of the dragon, and the devil inside. It made me angry, it made me laugh, and it made me cry. I honestly think it is a MUST-read. I suspect many books discuss my revelations, as I borrow some material from authors, politicians, screenwriters, and musicians. Our human condition is a hot topic, but I want this book to be a history guide on how we got to be this self-indulged, self-promoting, and lovers of self members of society. We must find that "loving feeling" of unity if we desire a life everlasting. 

Unlike my first book, the bible was not my main source of information. The intention of this book was to explore why certain people are a threat to the political establishment. It moves quickly into the conclusion, and for several chapters, I show how our desire for metaphoric gold is used to drive the economy and our hearts. It is the seven deadly sins and the spirit of the dragon which has created the spiritual chaos, we all possess it.

My promotion of this book is looking different. I am setting up my website store. This means books, poetry, and blogs will be offered for sale. As well, I am also working on  POP (point of purchase) material, such as tee-shirts and coffee mugs. I will have a mobile broadcasting/podcasting station ready in the spring, being onsite makes more sense than wasting my time promoting to people I have never met online.

I am convinced, we need a change of heart, and I write from this belief and have faith that we will finally unite and put love before hate.

By the vessel, 
William John
