Doop, Woop and Hooligans

See first of all I would like to mention that this is not a piece of fiction, so if I’ve referred you on my blog saying I write fiction, you should rather see my old posts. This and again this post is solely rather dedicated to my time away from here. I seriously doubt I have a single regular reader but even if you randomly visit my blog you must have noticed the sudden decline in my number of posts. See, for me writing was a way of escaping reality. Some people read, I used to write, plain and simple. So for the past six- seven months or so I’ve been happy, satisfied and jocund, which I consider the biggest reason for me to not write anything because I didn’t really had my demons to fight with, I had my angels. I didn’t felt the need to go and write shit down in order to redeem myself from the turmoil’s building inside of me for there were none. I am happy.
As I had already said, writing for me was my way of escaping reality. I was the literal God. I created people and destroyed at my own will. I could put my own self in any condition and end it the way I want it to be. I didn’t have any limitations. The sense of power that you get when you see writing that way becomes addictive, which I think is one of the reasons that writers addicted to writing have to, HAVE to write something or the other every day.
In the past few months, I’ve had the privilege of going through the writing of other mortals that have made me kind of doubt myself as a writer and/or as a thinker. I’ve been active on twitter which gave me the chance to see people writing beautifully in just 140 characters. I tried writing something in that limit but always seem to fail. I think I still need a bigger platform, hence this post. Also I’ve read some amazing blogs over the last few days, one of them being foreverawkwardsandlearning.blogspot.in. This is run by a girl named Harnidh Kaur, a history student. The main and most probably the only reason I’m sharing it here because her writing needs to get out more. I’ve been here since over a year and if I can get a few of you guys to read her stuff, my purpose of sharing it would’ve succeeded. She or actually her writings gave me my actual reason of why I didn’t wanted to write anymore.
According to her writings, I am now saved. I don’t have the urge to write anything now. Me, who used to call myself a writer has now realize I was just a storyteller, the stories being the happenings in my mind which came out in words forming different stories.

So, summing up I hope whoever ends up reading it have the time to go through my other writings because, not to brag or anything, they are good. I hope you be as happy as I like to believe I am.
