Description Welcome to the Scholar Gypsies. My name is Gerry O'Neill and I am a writer & publisher on Substack of The West's Awake. The Scholar Gypsies is an interview series with creatively minded people from Ireland and around the world. The channel is inspired by a verse from the Matthew Arnold poem The Scholar-Gipsy " And near me on the grass lies Glanvil's book— Come, let me read the oft-read tale again! The story of the Oxford scholar poor, Of pregnant parts and quick inventive brain, Who, tired of knocking at preferment's door, One summer-morn forsook His friends, and went to learn the gipsy-lore, And roam'd the world with that wild brotherhood, And came, as most men deem'd, to little good, But came to Oxford and his friends no more " I am new to video publishing so have patience with me!

follow on X @TheOctopus559 visit https://therealnicholascamarena.webnode.page/ Nicholas "The Octopus" Camarena, was a writer, musician, artist and martial artist from Fresno California. His writing covered all types of genres and all types of forms. From poems, novelettes, flash fiction, and novellas. Most can be downloaded and read here for free http://therealnicholascamarena.webnode.com and a lot can also be found on this "Rumble" Channel with Nicholas actually reading the audio book for it for free. For those interested in purchasing a copy of one of his printed books for support - and to have more than just an online copy, they can do so here https://www.blurb.com/search/site_search Blurb is the "Official" store for all of Nicholas Camarena's Printed Works. His music, "which can be heard for free on this channel", was experimental and mostly instrumental. A Keyboard artist, he made tracks almost predominantly using a "Casio CTK-6250" with a lot of tracks simply using the actual "sounds" from the keyboard itself, which gave his music a retro-vibe. The later music was done off DAWS sounds, still using his Keyboard, but Nicholas still insisted in not using anyone's preloads or pre-loops to construct any of his music. Giving each one of his songs a unique sound of similarity of his own. He also constructed "70 songs" in about "3 months" for a project called "The Forever Music Project". The Idea was for 'one song' of the the 70, to be released one at a time every December 28th, until there are no more songs to post. This means even after death, he will release a never before heard song, once a year, for the next 70 years. On This channel you can also find his artwork - which also spanned across many genres. As well as some small clips of him and Martial Arts.
