It’s been a while now since I mandated myself to write a review for my every single read; be it a classic or contemporary, be it a piece I liked or the one I didn’t, I make sure to pen my experience down (on Goodreads) for, if not anybody else’s, my sake to the least….

Over a Blank Page
When the days grew longer and the nights grew darker, She sat beside the unlit candle, to think and to question her gradual dismantle. What meant world to her, was lost somewhere. Somewhere in the dark among the lights, in the lights that shone so bright. If it were anything else, she would have coped…
A for Art, A for Artistry, A for Acceptance
When I look around, the people, the fields that attract me the most are the ones related to Art; be it painting, or acting, or singing, or dancing, if it has a creative tint about it, this moth lingers to that flame without even knowing itself. You can learn to code [(computer coding) no offence…
Is Language a barrier in Writing?
❝One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.❞ ‒Frank Smith This is something which has been one of the main worries of the amateur writers or those who want to kick off their writing journey that if their writings are not technically correct, nobody would be…
It’s just been A Year!
The day held nothing special about it- the sun still rose from east, weather was still unbearably hot. But this day, right a year back, with my backpack, all alone, I had ventured on a new journey. I still remember that day and my whole journey vividly. If I take you back with me in…
Let’s talk about ‘The’ King, Stephen King, and his Memoir
What do we ideally do when we want to read a writer’s work for the first time, especially if it’s fiction writer we’re talking about? We go about his/her bestsellers or the top rated novel or work suggested by some creditable reader and venture off to a journey with this new fellow. Right? At least,…
Family of Punctuation on a road-trip!
Just when I was wondering how come the chatterbox was silent, his flap opened; this situation made me reconsider his once self-acclaimed label of being a psychic. But I must admit, which I don’t too often, that his moving flap was the only way to get the awkward silence spread among 13 of us being…
Are writers overrated?
It’s been a few days since I was told something which didn’t go down well with me. I was told that the field I look upon with all sparkles and twinkling in my eyes, the field of writing and the job of writer is overrated. To be precise the exact words were-“Writers are overrated!” Yes,…
Have we started loving others on the expense of ignoring ours?
Birds chirping, sun shining perfectly on the horizon, winter winds by not being too harsh on living beings blowing pleasantly, and the gone shade. Yeah, I daily find a new one to sleep. And no matter what and where I find it, it always goes away when sun gets into doing its job. “Mom! My…
Did you start Reading first or Writing?
Who or what came first – Hen or egg? Oh yeah! What an idiotic question? Egg and hen. How did they even qualify to have few words dedicated to them in a write-up cleverly woven around reading and writing, let alone starting this post? Is the title just a bait to catch your attention, you…
