An Editor’s Voice: Vision and Elocution
Q3 2026 Program and the honing of one’s foresight as a business and artist alike.
Written by Bennie Castle
We wrap up our official 2nd quarter in a peculiar and unfortunate way, due to circumstances very much out of our hands. There’s only so much one man can do, and much less can he do about intangible and unpredictable predicaments… So, what has been put in the forefront, though, will hopefully tide over most of what we, Autem Today™, wanted to complete, from the get.
- A conclusion to Catalog 002, (Publication 008, Late July 2026 AD.)
- Re-release Editions of Catalog 001 (Minus Publication 003*¹)
- Count. Parts iv. and v.
And, now, indefinitely, a sound compilation of
- The Music Album [July. 2026 AD.]
All this, and an additional, is what we’ve envisioned and planned for our Official Q2 Programming. What wasn’t planned was achieving our personal milestone of 30,000 downloads in the publication division, before the end of 2026 (AD.), amongst other things. Again, we thank our avid readers and new audience alike.
Vision.
When we say ‘vision’, we mean outlook and approach. The possibility of probability with such a wide arsenal of skills and trades under our belt. The aspects of NECTR Blog Online’s Parent Company, Autem Today™, are not simply just downloadable E-books and audio or streaming material (Count. being exclusively on Medium’s platform, Fairytale. the Music Album, soon available on the Official Website and Store Site.

‘What can we do?’ slowly morphs into questions like, ‘What should we do?’ and ‘What do we want to do?’ Simply because the former renders itself obsolete. What don’t we do as Autem Today™? (Hence, our Company Name.)
For an extended time, we’ve had doubts about the graphic design division, whether we should or even what we should do about it. Thankfully, projects like Count. have opened avenues for its use again. Its viability leaves us with a ‘want,’ not a necessary ‘need.’ We don’t have to strive away count.less hours on material for other people; we work for ourselves and our own ideas. We don’t ever have to make art for the sake of others, but rather for the sake of upsales on free content we make for our fanbase and audience alike. In theory, it becomes a want. But as a self-appointed ‘boss’ sort of speak, it is a major want because of how well everything else drives autonomously after a while. The vision then becomes one and the same with the works. The vision is to make the works ‘work’ through the enjoyment of it’s craft and of itself. Also, the prosperity of them, and of never needing to play a ‘push and tug game’ or forcing them on anybody, ever. Like it or not, there’s always a million and two other people who would.
Elocution.
(Noun): A style of speaking, though, in music refers to the artful delivery, articulation, phrasing, and emotional projection of a musical performance
Throughout every publication we’ve released, both diction and vocabulary have played a key role. We have no plans to make audiobooks, if that’s what one would infer from our use of ‘elocution,’ but we use the term in the sense of ‘Fairytale. the Music Album’ and its potential in the culmination of current and future works. Once it debuts, the ‘lack’ of lyrics, incidentally, will be key to bridging gaps in the reader’s imaginations. And songs that DO have vocalization are already well stressed and reiterated in some publications.
Fake Face, a crucial character and centerpiece of various publications, has his own voice and style. As does ‘Sammy‘, and of course, Count Diamant. For some, we try to correlate them with the time period in which their ‘worlds’ or ‘realm’ take place, as with narrative writing. What we hope, above all else, is the sense of fulfillment through our works, not just jargon and fill-ins. We’ve studied an impressive number of books in numerous fields of study. Historical books covering the history of Byzantium. Fictional and non-fictional Theological books, such as Thomas Hobbes’ Leviathan and Milton’s Paradise Lost.
It should be no surprise that our publications have a mature tonality in them, and from time to time, a general-public one, usually during comical scenes and especially NECTR-related content. We aim to combine the best of both classical and modern approaches in all our writing. Both as a nod to the celebrated author(s) and as a way to appeal and garner a contemporary readership. With that, we present the following quarter’s program
Q3 Programming (July -Late September 2026 AD.)
- Akeldama. (A Field of Blood.) or… The Crucifixion of Judas Christ. (Publication 008, Finale of Catalog 002: Folktale.)
- Count. Part vi: The Count Who Laughs
- New NECTR Articles (1-3)
- Catalog 001 Digital Boxset

We hope you’ve enjoyed the show so far.
Sincerely,
Castle.
