In the Black

by Aditya Kumar ~ April 23rd, 2008. Filed under: Personal.

If you read this, whoever you are, leave a comment. I seem to have trouble figuring out how many people even read this weblog. Have I hit an all time low? Maybe. I feel a shadow of my former self. No, really.

Now, as far as blogging is concerned, instinctive, “at-the-moment” writing is not my cup of tea but come to think of it, that made me a better blogger 4 years back. Maybe I have been taking it too seriously. But then again, talking about my favorite color on the blog is a waste. No one is bothered, no one should be bothered.

I have decided that if writing in me has to stay alive, I will have to write more. They say, if you are uncomfortable doing something, you have to do it more to make things in order. So there. If I am to write more, I know I will end up writing irrelevant and then some “not-so-relevant” things. I think if there is a way ahead, this is it.

As I mentioned, I would need you to comment. I know some people who (used to) read me here but never comment(ed). I know how it seems to be in the black — Can’t see or be seen or whatever. It’s not that good a thing, to be a silent spectator. Its unfair. So speak up, please.

    Well, you know me - and you know I do read your blog.

    A simple word of advice: Write because you want to; because you have something to say. Don’t worry too much about who comes here or what he/she thinks/sees.

    Writing is communicating. I am sure you would not want to stop communicating now, will you ?
    The ‘principal’ and ‘parent source’ of good writing is GOOD SENSE. Now keep up that GOOD WORK of yours.
