“Be True To Your Words”
Never yield to the sensitivity censorship forces.
Not for political correctness.
Not for opinions that your gut rejects.
Not for ideas that are trendy and seem popular.
Not for anything that counters your personal ethics.
Never.
As an author and writer, your first call to action is:
To be true to your writing.
To be true to your voice.
To be true to your readers and followers.
To ALWAYS be true to self.
Speak out. Write out. Publish out.
Censorship shouldn’t be your guiding light.
Never and Ever.
