Write to give a legitimate voice to the words. It is essential to find the most appropriate words to synchronise with the soul. The apathy towards good vocabulary undermines the authenticity of that voice. The pretentiousness of feelings does not glamorise the words but leaves them with a half-hearted and feeble nature. It is a concern when writing becomes impatient, directionless, and absurd due to … Continue reading Why Write

The pen is only skillful only after the … Continue reading So, you write?
