Summary

Blue Insights is a publication founded by Owen R Thornton and Øivind H. Solheim, dedicated to fostering a community where writers can share emotions, encourage reading, and engage in a collaborative exchange of stories and insights.

Abstract

Blue Insights is an inclusive online publication that aims to cultivate a space where writers from diverse backgrounds can express and explore human emotions through their writing. The platform was born out of Owen R Thornton's passion for poetry and the realization that there is a readership interested in delving into the thoughts and feelings of others. The publication emphasizes the importance of being read and understood within a community setting, rather than being lost in the vast sea of larger publications. Blue Insights welcomes writers with a passion for storytelling and a desire to connect with others through their work. The publication plans to expand by creating pages for literary analysis and features writing in different languages, with the stipulation that non-English works include an English translation. The founders invite contributors to share their unique perspectives, emphasizing that perfection is not a prerequisite for participation—authenticity and the ability to evoke emotion are the primary criteria.

My Purpose In Blue Insights

News and a warm welcome to Blue Insights — Owen R Thornton —

With a true passion for this page, I welcome you, of all people, languages, and pasts.

This writing will be an informal, elemental composition to give an idea of our purpose at Blue Insights.

I, with cofounder Øivind H. Solheim, created Blue Insights as a page for all writers to spread emotions, encourage people to read, and clap, as a community.

After putting my poetry up, I had noticed there are other readers out there who are willing to take time to understand others thoughts, and emotions. I wanted to spread more of my work, and before I realized it, I was on the journey to creating a brand new publication.

I knew I could not join another publication, simply because of the sheer size of them. Have you ever submitted an original piece of work, article or fictional essay, that got posted, and it feels like only your mother read it?

The principal purpose of Blue Insights is to create an environment in which people can share the human trait of emotion.

We all share one thing in life, and this, among all other things, is emotion.

Emotion is truly what makes us human.

I am no star writer, author, no truly talented prose scripture. I only write poetry consistently in notebooks whenever ideas spark into my mind.

At Blue Insights, we are looking for people with passion, love, and emotion. We look for people with stories to share, a community to breed, and a feeling of success to arise.

Blue Insights is the publication for everyone. This page is the site to go to to be read and to be seen, to learn and to understand.

As a rising, young publication, we at Blue Insights are looking for you to be part of a growing community, where work is cycled, and recycled, analyzed, and reanalyzed.

We look to start the exchange of word, exchange of mind, and exchange of experience.

We all have a story,

We all have emotions,

What are yours?

The Future

Whether a medium member, or not, this publication is in store for all of us, we plan to create further pages, where writers can evaluate, and try to understand poems and metaphorical meanings from the past, or present.

By this above, I mean — you would be allowed to take a poem of interest, and evaluate it, getting ideas from it, and trying to convey what you believe the main ideas are.

Allowing all people, of all languages to join, we only ask for an English translation if the original copy is of another language.

We will have a special feature page for those of you writing in another language, due to its uniqueness, and inspiring motion.

This would include

  • The Ability To Submit Analysis
  • The Ability To Share Your Favorite Authors, and Poets
  • The Ability To Think Deep, and Cognitively

Remember, there is no such thing as perfection, and I invite you to share what you have in store, you dont need to be any poet, just human, and a human who can write words, and you have the sky as your limitl;
