Writing

It has been quite some time I started reading. No, I am not talking about reading the school books which we read to escape a scolding from the teachers and maintain a sincere image to the parents. Whereras I want to mention about reading books which fall under the category of 'time pass'. But more than helping in passing the time what they give you is the perspective. And a good writer according to me is the one who narrates in simple language but leaves an impact on the reader.
But why I am writing this today is after getting a feeling of shame when I read a small piece of essay written by an amatuer writer. It was surely his first one. The ludicrous repeatition of words, half baked ideas and raw language made it awful. Today, I knew it might have taken a whole lot of pactice to those greate authors whom I admire so much, to reach at this stage in their writing. For some, it may come by birth. But others need practice. I think, I am one of the latter ones. And I cherish a dream to be one of those great ones. In case, you are still wondering, the disastrous peace of literature was written by me only. And I indent to take a lesson from it.
