Today’s Question by the reader : Tamara
You are the living proof that the written word is not dead in this age of the Internet and beyond. But, will the written word ever die? Is there any need for us to fear for its demise?
When I became an author in the late eighties, before the Internet boom, many people said that the written word was dead. Specially being a Brazilian author, I heard constantly that it was useless to become a writer since the language of literature was now English.
When Internet was implemented during the nineties,
The Winner Stands Alone : Chapter XII by Paulo Coelho
Javits glances around. There’s a man in dark glasses drinking a fruit juice. He seems oblivious to his surroundings and is staring out to sea as if he were somewhere far from there.

Today’s Question by the reader : Gilles
God has always talked to you, Sir. What has He been telling you that you have not yet told us yet? And why is it that we are not hearing Him – are we deaf?
God is constantly talking to all of us, not only with me. The great problem is that we are not listening to Him.
I do believe that everything we see, everything that is in front of us is just the visible part of reality. But there’s also an invisible part that is ruled by emotions, feelings. This is our perception of the world, but God is–as W
