It is truth universally acknowledged that everyone between the age group 6-86 years have blogs. It is <also> truth universally acknowledged that the first part of the first sentence of Miss Austen’s book Pride and Prejudice finds its way to most literary works of the most non-literary people. No offence to Mr. Dickens whose ‘It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…’ has been copied borrowed only half as many times as Miss Austen’s famous opening has been. But now I’m rambling- which I’ve been told is my way of procrastinating. But in my defence, this non-blogging for the past five years was because of writer’s block. And now, I think I may be finally over it. Not SO over it that I’m going to create my own blog (maybe five years from now I’ll be ready for that!) Over it just about enough to ask a friend for my own little space in his blog. A place for MY writing in HIS blog- is this equivalent to a live-in-relationship in the virtual world?

After this advancement in our association from friendship to virtual live-in-relationship, I was ready with the name for my space (scroll up to see the e.e. cummings inspired blogspace name and please do comment-I take criticism fairly well and compliments even better).Now I had to pick one topic that I was going to give my expert opinion on. Except that procrastination is not my worst flaw. Indecisiveness is. So after much ruminating, I have decided that I am not going to pick one topic. writer’s blog is going to be as random as quizzes on social networking sites. But it may just be more interesting.

P.S: A sneak-peek into the topics of some of my unwritten blogs- Chronicling Korea. Stay tuned.
