An idea for a blog comes to mind. Most are based from own experiences while some are stories of other people. Your own story, your friends’ and officemates’ or a newly – acquired peer’s chronicle will be woven into what will be your next post for the day.

You start typing these ideas but will be lost halfway before you finish your first paragraph. Does this sound right? Is this coherent enough?

You hit those keys but you’re not satisfied. Suddenly, hitting the backspace and delete keys seems quite appealing. You delete.

Type, type, and again you type.

Hmmn… this is not good enough. Backspace key, delete.

Type again. Delete some. Delete some more.

Select all. Clear.

All those ideas are now staring at you as a blank page.

You have to exercise those brain cells. You must think. You need to concentrate. But again, you failed.

So much for your wait-‘til-you-read-this masterpiece…

But what the heck! It is as if anybody would care about what you will write. And if they do care, you don’t. Do you? You could be in for eternal damnation but you will write what you want to write. And you need not be apologetic about it. Even if your grammar is unforgivable; even if your story sucks, big time! It is your story. If you don’t like them, who would?

Now you start typing again. Words flow freely like an endless stream. You’re now hitting the alphabet keys like there’s no tomorrow. Your fingers can even seem to catch up with your brain. Your Pandora’s Box of ideas is now finally open.

Open sesame!

Eureka! Eureka!

You’re free, at last.

Before you know it, you’re done. You actually like what you’re now reading, and can’t seem to get over it. The more you read and reread your ‘new baby’, the more you fall in love. Narcissist…

You’re convinced that you’re the next Hemingway, King, Rowling, Sheldon, Tolkien and Zafra. But you know you’re just kidding yourself.

An icing on the cake would be – a good title. Be sure not to have an ordinary title. Not too predictable for it may not give everything away, nor too ‘out-there’ you don’t know where it came from.

And definitely, not like this one’s.
