So its 4th of June 2012, I am working on a post,
exactly after 5 months 3days and 20 hours and 10 minutes determined to
publish it and not dump it again into the drafts like most of my other posts. I
have done this very often out of the fear of writing (Scriptophobia, they call it, lol :D). It was back in
class four when I first skipped by winter vacation work of writing an essay on
"winter holidays". Gossh !! an essay? I just can't do that.. this is
so boring.. and what will I write ?? all I love about winters is staying
under the quilt and never coming out.. how can I fill pages on this? My teacher
made me kneel down for two hours in the assembly hall after making several
attempts of making me write that essay and trust me, this was easier than
writing a whole essay :P Formal letters were just so easy to attempt in
exams, you know? short and sweet! I dozed off in most of my exams after
completing the whole paper but the essay :D resulting in a bad score in all my
English exams :D Writing had always been headache and even an article
seems to me like writing a whole library and that fear of not being good enough
always lingers, even today, it sometimes does! Am I that bad at
expression? certainly not! at least after the feedback I have
received from my friends who loved reading a few of my articles :) . You know
what? Writing is amazing. Its like an organised art.. it helps to organize your
thoughts and eventually your actions. It helps you cultivate patience and
develops you as a person. When you are over with one write up, it feels
amazing, you know why? Because you feel like a CREATOR. :) :) To all those who
are willing to write but feel something is holding them back just "start writing and stop
thinking." One myth about writing is that you need to have all thoughts
and ideas in place before you start with it. It is just not so. You will be
surprised to experience how ideas flow eventually to your fingertips once you
start writing. A little bit of editing and then a little more and you will see
how to come up with a so much better piece of it than you ever imagined.
Happy Writing !
