Author-rology (The flair for WRITING)

Hmmm… Let me think. Ahaa. At the age of eight was the first time ideas started overflowing from my brain . I liked writing paragraphs about general topics such as short descriptions of my hobby and my interests. I always liked to express myself in a way that can be understood by people.

To me, becoming an author is all about expressing thoughts and giving opinions regarding a certain topic. I hereby support Chef Gusteau’s slogan from the movie “Ratatouille” stating that ‘Everyone Can Cook’.

This ‘Everyone Can Write’ slogan created by me because I felt that one can be able to become a successful author if only they can convert the ideas into words . Authors have to own a poetic brain that can mix and match words in order to make the readers understand better and also express certain sentences in a way that no one can express in order to attract the reader.

In my case, I got the hang to write because I sacrificed my childhood for Disney movies. In my point of view, I feel that the vocabulary used those days helped me more than the movies I watch these days. Despite believing in magic, I also lent my ears to the usage of English Language those days which helped me communicate in a better way.

I personally think that an author should not follow the trend of a certain community. We might think that it’s a safer thing to do other than trying something new. But that’s a wrong thing to do. We always have to be in the limelight so that our creations will be recognised by the society we live in. In other words, let’s take the movie industry as an example. Years ago, audience were engrossed by horror movies but now audience prefer the real live version of Disney Movies. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the taste of the audience and we cannot be restricting ourselves while writing.

Last but definitely not the least, an author must be ever ready to accept challenges and always have courage to write about something new. This scenario happened to me when I wrote the ‘Anything For You’ Book. I wrote about the life after death, which no one has ever written about and also I mixed that potion with the power of love potion. I received many feedbacks be it bad ones and also good ones. I had to accept them because I wanted my book to be liked by everyone.

Ya, before I forget, I would like to say ‘Thank You’ for inspiring me, Ms.Enid Blyton. Her books really triggered the fire in me to challenge myself and write something new everytime.
