How to start writing

These headlines of the article seem very straight, frank & honest, isn't that true? The question is very simple, but as son as one sits to find the answer that person is like "Oh, I am stuck!".The deluge of questions, makes a person's wish to write weaker and weaker & finally pen rests in peace and paper remain blank as usual. Many thoughts suddenly burst out into his/her mind-

1. This Grammar, it is not cup of my tea, so I can't learn it and I cannot write, therefore.

2. It is too difficult, maybe people are right that it is not a job for everyone.

3. Writing job needs technical expertise, experience and hell of a study before one kick start        the process.

4. I'll learn it from someone else, because I don't know what's wrong with me! I can not                think effective words and lines to impress readers.

I give all the answers one by one in the same manner as stated above, but before that you need to believe that everything is possible, even this fact is slightly distorted for living beings in the real world you still have to believe it adamantly. So here we start to dig out some facts.

1. Don't hesitate or hate something when you learn, this is the first lesson to become an expert. Grammar is a matter of profound learning, it needs a little bit of dedication, time and viola! You will see that now you are interested in it than ever. If you know that how a person hate something because he/she has some fears than you couldn't be more agree on the matter that you 'think' that you can not learn correctly the grammar of respective language and so you leave the field without a battle and of course, you admit your defeat just because of a mere thinking! 
The truth is: "Everything is possible, all you need is to set an aim and dedicate yourself to it." Your first step should be to reset your brain and get onto the job. Read grammar rules again and again. Remember, no one is perfect and in case of grammar only God is perfect, even I have a hard time believing in it. You are no different from others, just Learn the rules, Revise them periodically and without any hesitation speak the sentences in front of people and when you'll see an improvement, you'll find the subject very interesting.

2. If, to write is too hard then it is hard for everyone. Since the beginning of the school days, you write many things like homework, assignments, e-mails and short notes that you exchange with friends during the class, can't you see that you have written a lot in your life! Content writing is also not so different. You have to draw your feelings and ideas on a blank paper, that's it! Rest you will learn as time passes by, but as I said earlier, to believe that you can and everything is possible is the most important step.

3. You need technical expertise to write and that comes after experience of years, that's true! But again "If you want to make it to the 100 miles, you need to start your journey from the first step". Here experience should be taken as practice and not the working hours in an organization. Do practice by writing, speaking and listening. Even if you are not perfect, but you find a grip on language, it is enough to generate a good content.  




4. You don't find magnificent words and phrases that leave the readers speechless? You really need to find someone who can guide you or I should say "something" that can describe you, you are right I am talking about Books. Wake your inner reader up, read some good write ups and observe how writer rights, copy their writing style, do some research and after some-time you will see that you are expert enough now to develop your own writing style.

So all boils down to this-:

1. You can write and there is 100% possibility that you can write good enough to please people.

2. Everyone needs practice; "Practice makes a man perfect". Learn words & phrases from books, people, newspaper & Google, then apply that knowledge by using those words and phrases in sentences.

3. Always keep a dictionary close, use your mobile dictionary or Google Translation. Keep in mind "There is no tomorrow when it comes to learning, as soon as you observe something unusual, learn it immediately! 

4.Read lines written by famous authors from books, blogs or newspaper and try to copy the writing style when you construct your own write-up.

This is just the beginning of writing, be confident and start today!

Top 5 Women Writing Creations (Literary category)

Today is a big day! Why? Because the whole earth is celebrating for half of the earth. Yes, that's true. Half of the earth, The half part of God's best creation- Women. A man plays many roles through his life but every time he plays a role, the support he needed is a woman. That's why a woman not only supports but also plays her own role simultaneously, not mention about greater responsibility that women bear.
From the ancient time people think that the strength of a woman is generally neglected by mankind. It is not the whole truth, some women have been proving that they don't need anyone's attention and They can earn the respect and recognition from their own, they have been leading the world. It is time to celebrate the female achievement across the globe and to express our gratitude to Women.    
The theme of International Women's Day, 2015 is

"Make It Happen"

Today, why should not we discuss about legends who "make it happen" and some legendary writers as well, so that we can share and encourage the respectful aspect of women world that we have in our mind and heart.

Top 5 Legendary Women of all Time-
  • Catherine II, Empress of Russia 1729 – 1796- Woman who made the Russia a powerful nation on the first place in whole world.
  • Florence Nightingale 1820 – 1910 (“The Lady with the Lamp”)
  • Cleopatra 69-30 BC- The best strategist of all time, considered by experts.
  • Joan of Arc (1412-1431) – Young girl who inspired French to revolt against British rule. Burnt at the stake for witchcraft.
  • Many other legends like Indira Gandhi & Mother Teresa are inspiring us and even in modern era many more like- Oprah Winfrey, Hilary Clinton & Billie Jean King are contributing to lead the new world with their knowledge. 


Women's Writing and Legendary writers-
A brief explanation
Academic discipline of Women's writing is the based on the notion that the experience of women, historically, has been shaped by their gender, and so women writers by definition are a group worthy of separate study,Their texts emerge from and intervene in conditions usually very different from those which produced most writing by men ( Blain, Virginia, Isobel Grundy, and Patricia Clements, eds. The Feminist Companion to Literature in English. New Haven and London: Yale UP, 1990.)
In simple words, women's brain works differently and also as their e.q. (emotional quotient) is higher which makes them more creative and imaginative according to a study. But don't be confused that this concept is only limited to writers & writing. In fact, it is also emphasizes on the woman cast as in lead role in a novel or book because, then, a writer has to study, think and write exactly as women think.

Here are some legendary woman thinkers and writers who shook the world with their talent-
  • Mary Scott, The Female Advocate: A Poem Occasioned by Reading Mr Duncombe's Feminead. London: Joseph Johnson, 1774.
  • Charlotte Mary Yonge, Biographies of Good Women (First Series, 1862; Second Series, 1865)
  • Julia KavanaghWomen in France during the Eighteenth Century (1850) 
  • J.K. Rowling- Who can forget the magical world of "Harry Potter" series.
  • Toni Morisson-Toni Morrison is an American novelist, editor, and professor. Her novels are known for their epic themes, vivid dialogue, and richly detailed characters. Among her best known novels are The Bluest Eye, Sula, Song of Solomon and Beloved.
  • A M Homes-Homes is known for controversial topics in her writing, and her satirical novel "May We Be Forgiven" won her the 2013 Women’s Prize for Fiction.
  • Zadie Smith-Zadie was lauded as the "Next big thing" when her first book, White Teeth, debuted in 2000, while she was only 22 years old.
  • Donna Tartt-Donna Tartt won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for "The Goldfinch". It was no surprise, really, since the much-anticipated novel made the New York Times best-seller list during its first week on the shelves.
  • Jhumpa Lahiri-Prize-winning novelist Jhumpa Lahiri is the author of well known creations Unaccustomed Earth, The Namesake and Interpreter of Maladies.
  • Suzanna Arundhati Roy-Known for the 1998 Man Booker Prize for Fiction-winning novel The God of Small Things (1997), which became the biggest-selling book by a non expatriate Indian author. 

The contribution of women to this earth is unparalleled. World should support and encourage the efforts made by women. By empowering women kind, we can make this world a better place.

3 Points That Describe You Are Important To Everyone.

You think you are very much wasted or feeling like not many people know you because you are not kind of big gun person. Your friends and people around, not very much concerned about you. So it all come down to one point that you are maybe not important to this world. Well Story Sitter will prove you wrong by giving 3 major points of reality.


No One Is Important More Than You 

This world is full of enchanting and talented people. Genius scientist, skilled economist, hardcore athletes, intelligent diplomats and scholars. You ever noticed that in spite of million of working key people, this nature and this world totally independent of peoples who are extra ordinary & only want name and fame or being a Richie-rich. Unlike those people mentioned above Alan Turing, Mahatma Gandhi, Mark Twain, Abraham Lincoln, Karl Marx, Steve Jobs, these some significant people of history did the same normal things in life but with a different vision that made a difference and made them very important for whole world as they brought change. Develop that vision and you'll find that how important you are for others.


Recognize Yourself

There is nothing like important or unimportant, it just a human term to fathom worth of a person, but how can we evaluate worth of a living being when we don't understand it very well. In this universe every living being and non-living thing is important like asteroids, rock, humans, plants, fungi, bacteria and even virus, everyone is important in view of nature and while according to that supreme nature everyone is worthy than who are the humans to decide whether someone is very good and important or not. Don't listen who demoralize you and don't interpret by yourself negative opinions either. Recognize your true potential and feel above all what people might think and say, only you know what you are.


Don't Be A hurdle, Be A Successor

You think that no one cares about you, but if that's true then why are you on this conflicting planet? Remember what Einstein said once "god never rolls the dice" and that's true. Superior power exists because of that no event is random, everything bonded with force and certainty is there so every living being also has some purpose on this earth as well including us. Your thinking is the biggest hurdle to knowing the limits of your true strength and purpose. You have to be a successor for a legend and to help others you need your own help first. So believe, get out of your comfort zone and be a getter rather than depicting yourself a looser.





It's never too late to know the importance of your life, Take an oath to be the real useful being for yourself, for your beloved ones and stand up for people who might need your help, Story Sitter's Best Wishes are with you on every path you choose.
