Myself and Writing: Well, am not the writer by profession though I long to be one. I remember saying since school when teachers ask me what you want to become when I grow up, I would say as journalist because to me at that age, what I assumed was writers are journalists. Though my dad encouraged me to write and draw in children magazines, society did not pat me to grow as journalist because I am a girl from traditional background. I remember I was not allowed to send my passport size photo to a HR magazine along with my article publication. This denied the editor to publish it. I get very excited and treasure when my name and article gets published in books and papers. But that does not always happen. So you see, I write in my nutshell, I write only for myself, I write as anonymous I have started my journey with speed breakers,so Iam a budding flower waiting for the sunshine that will let it bloom.
