It is said that writing about oneself is one of the most difficult things to do. If you write good you come across as vain and even arrogant, and you can not allow yourself to write bad things about yourself.
But, anyhow, I am going to attempt the difficult ( I can hardly call it the impossible, judging by the number of autobiographies in the market today).
I am an Electrical Engineer by profession and a Writer by choice.
My first attempt at writing a novel was when I was 11 or 12 years old. It was written in longhand. When I close my eyes even today, I can recall the cover page that I had designed for the book. It was nothing fancy, yet, like first love, it will always remain in my memory.
After that there have been another few failed attempts at writing a novel…until finally I almost completed one. I say almost, because I still have to tie up some loose ends before I can think about getting it published.
In the meanwhile, I started experimenting with short stories. After getting a couple published on some online sites, I eventually managed to win a short story contest and get a story into print.
At present, I am working on a book, running a couple of blogs and editing an online magazine.
And that is pretty much all there is about me. I hope you enjoy the blog, and visit often.
