Welcome to Mandela Monday, a bi-weekly I, Jak blog series where we explore some of the residual evidence people claim has been left behind regarding the cited changes caused by the Mandela Effect — a phenomenon in which large groups of people have shared memories of specific facts and/or events contrary to the evidence that reality provides.

This year's A to Z Challenge is over, but how did I fare with another attempt at producing Flash Fiction and Poetry throughout it all? Did I run into the same complications as last year?
Join me as I reflect on the challenge and the thoughts about my continued participation on Dreams in the Shade of Ink.

Join me as I discuss the ups and downs of this year's Magic Mixer theme.

Learn more about the challenge where my team and I play games and heal kids!
