Blogging is more than just writing for me. It has always been a place where I have had the liberty to be just me. And I firmly believe that helps a lot. Being yourself, a unique voice in those thousands of blogs is what will make your blog stand out.

Write on topics close to my heart and interact with like-minded bloggers. This community building is what I love the most about blogging. We share an immediate connect the moment one would introduce themselves as "I am a blogger!" as if we have found a long lost sibling.

Read as many blogs as possible. This one thing is what can be called my best teacher in the last 5 years. I learnt the art of writing through some most amazing blogs I followed then. Some of them don't exist anymore which is a sad part but I am on a quest to continue till the horizon. And the best thing you can do for them is leave behind a comment. It feels good to know someone read you and your words struck a chord with them somewhere.

I have made some amazing friends in the last 5 years of blogging, some who are no longer bloggers but do continue to be friends. In last few years owing to some personal reasons my interaction came down drastically due to which my blogs got hit. But with #Blogchatter by my side this time I intend to rock it all over again! I want to take my blog to the next level with Blogchatter.

I now tag Kadambari to write her take on the topic

Book Review: Desiccated Land by David Lepeska

ISBN: 978-9395481205 Genre: Non-fiction Publisher: Vishwakarma Publications Bringing together his experiences as a journalist and a keen observer, David Lepeska writes a raw and gut-wrenching book on Kashmir. Part memoir, part travelogue, and part reportage, Desiccated Land is a page-turner. The book starts by tracing the history of the region along with his own history, as a student who was dimly aware of the history of Kashmir and the turmoil it has been causing for centuries between India and Pakistan. Lepenska takes us to Nilamata Purana ( likely written in the 7th century ) which tells us the story leading to the birth of this region. He also shares an alternate possibility of the word being derived from a lake ‘Mira’ named after Vedic Sage Kashyapa. His first visit to Kashmir closely followed by his second (and much longer) visit as a journalist working for the Kashmir Observer after the 9/11 attacks, make for an interesting read. Lepeska had questions, a lot of them. An

When long time friends Binaifer Desai and Louella D’Costa meet Shalini Dayal at Gyan Shakti College, a true friendship that transcends cultural and religious backgrounds is born. Louella is a Christian, Binaifer, a Parsi and Shalini, a Hindu. The novel’s main plotline surrounds Shalini who has fallen for an impetuous student activist, Bhagu. Where does his desire to help the less fortunate lead him?
