HEE HAHAHA

Today's post is dedicated to those cynics who dare not write themselves but are the first to criticize when someone else picks up the pen. The thing with writing is that you have to write, constantly and keep at it. Lot of hurdles lie in your way out which unwanted criticism is the worst. If you are sensible you wont care much and carry on but the stupid old me still has that kid inside. So today I write with the spirit of revenge... no that wont be good. Another thing about writing is that you should devoid yourself of all rage, emotions and ego issues and write with a clear head. You mayn't be the next Shakespeare but what you write will be sensible. I have done this so often, random ramblings whenever I am angry, down and out or defeated. But those emotions are fit for your private diary(I have four stacks of them all full of absurdly haphazard run of events). Also, what fails most budding writers is lack of words to express themselves in and that is why you need to read read read. Words are a writer's ammunition. Last but not the least, everything you write doesn't have to be complex. Just because you want to be a part of the literary world doesn't mean you cant write about mundane things, your daily routine, even a simple bus-ride from your house to work can be made exciting by the choice of words and how much heart you can put into it. A good example is Mr. Chetan Bhagat's books. I personally never liked them but that doesn't mean its not a good piece of effort from his side. In a recent tv show he said how proud he feels when an auto wallah or a taxi driver reads and enjoys his work!! As I mentioned earlier, just write, no ego's, no hassles, that is how it should be.

And now that I have given enough gyaan for the cynics, I will wait and watch out for their literary efforts. Heeeehahah
