Last month I was quite exuberant to write about a piece of History received in mail , a review of a good book and thoughts on Agatha Christie . Also a bit of personal blog on relationships , Indian parents & throwing in fiction piece for readers on which I intend to build my book . This site always had unique visitors which is why it kept me going . Ofcourse I also dream of being a celebrity blogger some day with 1000s of visitor per day but that for some other day.
The issue here is inability to complete a draft & post it . I am suffering writer's block . They claim , writers in general drink a lot of coffee to get over these blocks & also since they are insomniac , they later sleep for hours and days . I am a no coffee drinker , infact when I visit CCD I proudly order a Icetea ( their hot tea tastes terrible ) & a plate of Samosa . I for that matters didn't even drink gallons of tea and I haven't written a post at night in past one year . Yet every post has remained incomplete .
I have been visiting this blog for past one month , see its visitors count . Check on some old post , wonder about all those posts written by me ,Muse over those silly spelling & grammar mistakes and still I couldn't finish a single post . As I write this , I now remember there was even a 'sales & marketing' post in drafts , there is another on "customer satisfaction" and two days back I guiltily planned a post about 'networking without social network' (backbone of Indian culture) while returning from Nasik .
But yesterday something alarming happened, the blogger stats showed zero visits . By end of the day I made up my mind to pronounce - blog is dead . I haven't watched a movie for past three months in theatre. I haven't even visited hair dresser since past one month .Television has been what it is ; an idiot box. These are terrible signs , signs of cluttered mind , signs reading a lot of crap ,signs of work getting hectic and too much confusion. Confusion between capitalism & socialism , Confusion with ethnicity , Confusion of faith ( A post was also planned on that ) and a lot of confusion .
Not that I know how future would shape , Atleast The blog isn't dead.
