My life as a writer is equally filled with passion and profession. People say writers do survive in virtual world and filled with fantasies. Yes! To some extent it is so very true. But something which a layman would never realize or feel, “writers also have a melodramatic power to turn fantasies into realties.” Being a common human, I have experienced many treasured realities in my life. Some of them have showered my path with flowery love & exquisite smiles and some have broken me down with sticks and stones many a times. But being a writer, I have always managed treating each of my realities equally, impartially and made them turn look as marvelous as any fantasy. I can say with pride, “I have never waited to write my heart.” It actually gives me immense pleasure, a kind of relaxation when I am done with a new blog post. Something I must do after this current blog post is count my heart rates, just to measure the level of my excitement, just to note the rate at which my heart beats after I have shared few of my random thoughts and emotion in my blog :D As a genuine fact I wait for the Sundays to come not to take a break from my writing profession, but to switch my professional writing to passionate writing. Oh! I forgot to mention, I am a content writer by profession and usually write for my clients on their provided topics. Professional writing is all about revenue generation. How can I stay behind saying “My writing actually pays me!!?” And when people hear me saying about my career as an online writer, they come up with,” Hey you are lucky enough to work at home and earn money without much hard work.” Yes! This is one definite thing I listen from people, especially those who work in office and who are not into the professional writing world. Well buddies I must say one thing, “Distant objects are less visible to eyes.” One cannot judge with mere words or with superficial looks on anyone. Same is the case in the online writing profession. Sometimes it is better to keep mouth shut if you are not known to the things going beyond your vision. It hurts like hell when I hear “Aish hai yaar tumhare…Ghar baithe baithe paise mil jaate hain...” Let me translate this for my English mates. It is like hanging me halfway when people come up with something like, “hey! You have enough of luxury in your life as a writer. You just get money sitting at home without any struggle.” There are times when on the mid of my writing assignments I keep 10 mins break to relax my eyes with ice packs, they just burn like the burning fire. Sitting in front of laptop continuously for more than 14 hours a day is absolutely not a task of 1,2,3. Many times I am that overloaded with my writing works that I have to sustain complete sleepless 7 days on a row. Being a bold heart; I won’t show off the hard work, the dedication, the stress in mind, the pain in eyes, the hurts in my fingers to the world. But being a blogger of my RANDOM THOUGHTS blog, I will surely speak my pain. hmm!! smart girl I am to make things happen in a smart way:D [In case you understood this saying, please keep your understanding to self and do not disclose D} But yes, “I genuinely cry out with that adverse pain when my hands turn frozen, when they get that stiff enough to be moved” continuous writing and typing has made me a victim of struggling hands. I do take injections, medicines and tonics to keep my hands on working state so that I would not fail earning my hard money. “Money is after all the sole reason why I am into professional writing.” People enjoy time outside with colleagues and I have no colleague with me. They meet the outside world, get the blessings from the Sun God out of their home, feel the sun down and watch the stars and bathe with moonlight. I have no outside world. All I have is my laptop and my closed room.
But yes! I have no complaints about my profession. I make my own sun, moon and stars in my writings, in my thoughts and my expression. I enjoy writing and so I am into it. It is one very genuine thing that we do the things which keep us happy at some corner of our heart. Writing is my profession, my passion and somehow a healthy part of my obvious world.
Now changing the topic to my passionate writings; I will first come up with, “The embarrassing day, but funny to say.” Well this was my first write-up, a poetry in deed; done in my class 9th. We were assigned summer holiday homework with some more option; but I chose writing poetry. I will not wait for a single moment saying, “I was remarked as VERY GOOD!! :D” Mrs. Mrinalini Mishra was my English teacher then in School. She gave me one of the finest advices to continue writing with the same flow. And madam; following those words, “I reached that phage of my life now when I am genuinely known as a writer.” 14 years passed since then. And in this time period I have done more than 200 poetries and self published two books on the same. “The Cuckoo Sings Young” was my first poem book done during my class 11th, and the second was, “Beyond the Bond.”, done recently last year. In my entire writing epoch, my mother was always with me. I remember, every time I did one poem, it is she who listen me first. Credit also goes to my daddy who encouraged me by publishing my poems, funding the books even in times of financial crisis at home. That is why we say, “Parents are our worldly Gods!!
Ok, I am a mind with fluctuating moods and thoughts. So, once again, coming to my professional career as a writer; I started working for a Kolkata based company as an online content writer. Since then I started understanding the level of writing you actually need to hold on self in the global market of content writing. Those perfect keyword density, the word count check, those exclusive guidelines from clients and the writing format..Oops! I must not say this, but yes! ; “Each of my employer is my soul taker (Yamraj)” :D My apology, “holding my ears with sorry in lips”. Being a writer I can turn though times in to fun and enjoyment! So apart from fun here, I would surely say, “I totally owe all my employers who have being continuously assigning me works, supporting me learning new writing skills and raising my belief on leading my entire life with this wondrous profession, where one actually enjoys the work.”
Well guys! I have done this blog now in exact 100 minutes. And I know I won’t be paid for this from anyone. But again there is always a sense of relaxation, a feel of satisfaction when you do something good to your locked heart! This blog gave me immense pleasure all throughout the 100 minutes of my writing with total word count around 1300, without any SEO tricks or any fixed keyword :D I have not proof read even. That very careless stuff an over-loaded person does when he is sure; his work is not going to meet a rejection from his remunerator. And in the due course of time, my heart has kissed me tight for expressing it to the World. I am ON with a lovely stroke of excitement in me now. Need a definite break now from personal blog and switch over to professional writings.
Catch you once again soon…!!
“It is good to read books. But it is even better to write them!”…Proud to be a writer
