Something happened last night.Something significant.
I decided to change the way I write.For good. This place is always been about me(only).. I have asked myself several times why not write about books , movies or music .Somehow I dont get down to do it.Travel & living would be a brilliant subject to write about.So would be lifestyle.. A lot goes into writing. For me its been just 'write and publish', . But real writing goes through a lot of edits a lot of sentences erased and rephrased.A draft sitting for days modified and redmodified and micro-modified(there! I penned a new word!).. A year and half of blogging was just writing a few words without any edits . Taking the easy way out.
I am like a wild horse who needs blinders..To focus on my target. The target ,you ask? To write...Something serious and worthwhile. Maybe the frequency of posts will decrease as lot of work will go into 1 piece, but I want a materpiece rather than a bunch of worthless piece of crap. Priorities have changed, so has life.
I dont know what I will write about, coz my favourite subject is 'me'.....hahhaaha but am sure this will open up horizons for me to look beyond just 'me'.Recently someone very dear to me said'I am running out of fuel..'Once in a while I have stimulating ideas popping into my little head, and they just vanish before I can transform them into words..
My critic, mentor and technical guide ( teeheehee) Capt.Rao says its time I should do some serious writing, and I quite agree. On the contrary,I got a lot of readers only after I started writing about my life..Initial few posts were not about me and they did not receive any comments...Hmmmm now what does that imply??I will write in moderation about myself, my life and post interesting pictures, music videos sometimes.
In journalism , the thumb rule is to write or present what the readers want..Nevertheless, its time.Time to focus on words than me now..
ahh! ..... ur tattoo finally came to some use.....hehehe.... i think its time for u to graduate to a full fledged site ....how about going for a web designing course so that u can manage ur site and its contents... i see that ur blog is not flexible enough to adaopt to the changes u have in mind..... but having a domain space for u and a site that is manageble ( unlike blogger which only is manageable to certain extent....like the problem with ur video page....remember?).....because this thing is getting bigger and bigger by the day....think abt abt it.
