Who Should Choose Content Writing?

Students, housewives, professors, and retired people consider content writing as a good way to earn supplementary income. In general, anybody who has a knack for writing and aims to make it big in the field of writing sooner or later should look to get into this field. It provides them the opportunity to sharpen their skills of writing, while at the same time ensuring a good income.
I was someone who was in the dark about opportunities in this field for long. My country was going through recession, and there were hardly any jobs available. Then I came across an advertisement posted by a company which was looking for content writers. I was confident that I would make the cut, so I applied for the job and got selected. And now I’m raking in some moolah, though not much. The initial pay might disillusion anyone. However, if you choose to persist and settle down, you could easily be earning enough to lead a comfortable life.
But then, it also matters what kind of topics you get to write on. Fortunately, there is demand for writing in all areas, be it science, commerce or medicine, to name a few. Content writers can choose the topics that they are comfortable with and accept assignments on that basis. As long as there is unique appeal in the writings, they are bound to attract a large number of visitors.
Amongst content writers there are people who work full time and those who work part time. As mentioned before, people who are looking for some extra money in addition to that from the present job tend to take up content writing on a part time basis. Possible candidates to take this up on a full time basis include students who have nothing to do during their vacations, and housewives who are sitting empty.

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind... Anyway, let us look at some facts -   Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party. Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself. The circumstances of his death and execution are worth recounting. Although, Bhagat Singh had a...

Spill the Tea: When an online relationship feels more real

Anaya’s online relationship feels intense, intimate, and real — until she meets him in person. At a roadside tea stall, she admits she prefers digital intimacy to real-world vulnerability. This Spill the Tea story explores online friendships, emotional loneliness, and the quiet cost of choosing a screen over a life. Anaya rang the bell without calling first. When I opened the door, she was already stepping in, as if the decision had been made long before.  I asked her to sit. She chose the edge of the sofa, not leaning back. I went to the kitchen and opened the cupboards, scanning for something to put in front of her. I found a bar of chocolate. I broke it into uneven pieces and placed them on a small plate. She took one. The foil crackled in the quiet room.  “I’ll make tea,” I said. She looked at the plate and then at me. “No,” she said. “Don’t make it here.” I thought she meant she didn’t want tea. She shook her head. “Let’s go out. Tapri chai .” She said it lightly, ...
