I have read so many tips regarding preparations of various writing materials, but never do they tell us that we go to keep munching all day long (even night) for we got to keep our grey cells active. And if you wanna keep that foodie inside you active and well fed, do visit Simply Cooking which is a creation of a writer friend of mind. The pictures are amazing, and tempting, whereas the instructions are simple and easy to understand. Also, do write in your feedback about it in the comment section.

Every writer has a specific preference of topic or genre, for which he/she can write very well. Also, a writer knows about the topics for which he/she is not at all comfortable with. One of the broadest genres, for which several writers feel uncomfortable, is also a genre which spins up a lot of money. I am talking of adult articles, mostly which are good paying blogs. At several sites I see ads for writing blogs for adult sites, which are extremely voluminous in nature. And have lucrative pays too. I was wondering just yesterday that how can one single writer write 500 erotic blogs per month. (I came across an ad for the same, where a person was looking for a writer). This also reminds of a conversation, with a prospective client, to whom I asked (as we all do, in our first or second conversations) about the topics we would need to cover. "Don't worry, we wont give you adult topics", he said, and I was like, oh, ok. And so, today's website which I am going to inform

If you ask me what is the biggest issue plaguing the website content writing industry today, the answer would be disorganization or simply put very very unorganized and unprofessional industry. Now you may wonder, in the field where hundreds of articles are churned out of humans each day, who for a few dollars go on war with unrealistic deadlines and a lot of quality instructions, how come things be unorganized and unprofessional? The answer to this, can be found in the question itself. Several people who are into this field, h ave had no prior experience of writing. Some have never even done writing, ever. A tout culture flourishes, with people who have only negotiating and business acumen, getting into something, which I consider a very very high level of art. Then the thing about deadlines. Has anyone ever cared that what goes onto the writer to write so fast, and on similar topics. A degree of exhaustion happens, which is only cured by instant money. In hurry, a lot many times, m

Rule number one of content writing, anyone from the field will tell you is:- that we go to write unique content. Copy paste from anywhere is a big No. Now, it is my personal belief that in few years time, we would have a million plus articles on the same articles, and it will never be possible for our articles to pass the various plagiarism checkers. Because we have hundreds of tips, five pointers, ten pointers on each and every topic possible, on this planet. Anyway, that will happen, when it happens. Plagiarism Checker is a useful for start up writers, who are just fresh into the writing world. Some seasoned professionals use it too, but it is not very reliable according to me. As it is, free of cost plagiarism checkers are not much dependable, but this one looks quite outdated to me. If you don't use any checker, then please do use this one. It is really cool.

Hey folks, First let me explain the title of this post. This one picked up from , Meetu's Reflectio ns, a blog, maintained by a writer colleague. A must check out for all of you out there. You know, it is interesting to note that, most of the professional writers you will meet, have had tried their hands on blogging, personal blogging that is, and almost all of them got so busy with their writing work, that the personal blog, got deleted, dumped, or discarded. Many of those blogs, now roam around as ghost blogs in the blogosphere. You can see my own blogs, Jagruti, Footsteps, Food, all are deprived of my own writings, for I am occupied in my work. So today, reading this title of Meetu Ma'am's blog, A peaceful easy feeling, I think, is this not bad, that we are writers, we write content for websites, brochures and all. But we don't have time for our blogs, which are our own babies, our own creations. And does this not mean that we dont have for personal things now, tha

Hi all, We always pride ourselves with the fact that we are the world's largest democracy. Every five years when we go out to vote, we leave the rest of the world in awe. We make them wonder how such a staggering exercise is being conducted without major hiccups. The statistics alone is sufficient to rattle any planner and put him/her out of sleep for days. For all the chest beating that we indulge in, there is a darker side to our democracy that we usually don't visit that often and would certainly like to keep it under the wraps from prying outsiders' eyes. Probably you would have guessed what I am talking about right now. Inner party democracy has not been on the agenda of many political parties for a long time. They, conveniently, forget the fact that charity starts at home and that being propagators of democracy also means that they themselves have to practice it both in letter and in spirit first. Most of the political parties today somehow give inner democracy a miss

My first criminal charge ever was a burglary when I was 13 years old. One night when I was at home, a couple of friends came over and asked if I wanted to go chill with them. I said ok and we left my house. We started walking and at first I didn't know where we were going. Soon my homeboys told me that there was this kid that was moving and that he and his parents weren't home. So when we got to his house, I wasn't sure what I should do. Well anyway, I decided to go in the house just to look around. When we went in, I couldn't believe how much stuff they left behind. I started looking through stuff and I realized that there was a lot of stuff that I wanted - and because no one was there to stop me - I took what I wanted. I couldn't believe all the cool stuff I was getting. It actually felt fun at the time. I liked the rush so much, I went back to the house three nights in a row. I never thought back then that I would be caught, but a couple days later when I saw the
