Writing motivation

I’m not published. I’m twenty-two years old and still live with my parents. My Stepmom is a controlling type A person whose only care is cleaning. Life is tough but despite it all, I still want to write. I want to escape bit I know that hard work is the only escape I have. I

The beauty of traditional publishing

I’m a traditional publishing person. I’ve been self-editing, querying and getting rejected countless times. I’ve even queried the same agents twice. Sometimes, I’ve cried myself to sleep about not having a literary agent. It sucks. No one wants to feel like they aren’t good enough which is why some people give up and opt for

Netflixed

If you’ve ever watched the Netflix series ‘Bridgerton,’ you’d be amazed. The romance, drama and the beautiful costumes make you curse nature for having put you in the wrong century. And for those of you who think the entertainment business lacks diversity, the casting of a black man to play the most intriguing characters is

Equal after all….

Biden’s removal of the infamous ‘Muslim Ban’ was a breath of fresh air. Not only do Muslims get to emigrate to the United States but they will also be accepted in the community. So today I’m going to honour the religion of peace and talk about the amazing work that Muslim writers have put forward.

You remember Roosevelt’s speech, don’t you? I think Chuck Shumer is right. Little did Roosevelt know that January sixth will be the younger sibling of December seventh. After several of Trump’s supporters stormed the senate and started shooting people, the world was left in shock. As I read my previous article of fictional Trump’s ,

Chatty Bookworms

I’m joined by the gorgeous Jenny Gaitskell whose love for books is contagious. Me : Hey Jenny, as you know 2020 has been a tough year for all of us but that hasn’t deprived us bookworms from reading. So, tell me about the book that has been you quarantine-go-to. Jenny: Hello Apsarahow lovely to be chatting

The tragedy of history

If you’re a fan of ‘The Tudors’ like I am, you’d probably have shed quite a lot of tears as your favourite character (not you, Henry) died. As I pitied poor Katherine Howard and Anne Boleyn, I thought of all the other deaths that ended up in the pages of history books. What if Mary,

Bad judgement

I gave my manuscript to my grandma. She declared herself broad_minded, so it was a shock to me to find her belittling my story telling me that ‘she thought I was a very different person’ for writing that story. And trust me,her tone wasn’t flattering. I was more ashamed for myself than for her,when I
