So much has been written about 'writer's block' that it almost seems like an excuse for not being a prolifically good writer but I dont mind till the time I can use it as a shield myself.The best take ,however, on it was probably in a strip of Calvin and Hobbes(the best thing to happen in the world of cartoons) where Calvin invents a 'writer's block' which actually is a block that you keep on the table and which obviously won't let you write.
I am talking about it because just moments ago I wrote and deleted a pretty hefty take on 'dreaming within dreams'.I wrote a lot and then deleted it because it just didn't look like flowing.However that doesn't mean I am suffering from writer's block because only writers are previleged to this affliction for one and secondly I am going on writing another something that has no central theme running through it.These kind of articles can make an RC section of aptitude exams so difficult because they would never have a central theme.Infact the central theme could be digression.Digression reminds me of operating system classes and ITAaaaP,primarily the latter.ITAP was a whole wide world of nonsense for an egghead to dive in and emerge everytime with a new slimy concoction of half baked ideas glistening allover a fully baked skin.There was a diabolical convenience to the way topics turned hands in a span of minutes.I draw satisfaction from the fact that no matter how much I digress I cant get better or worse than that.
Those classes gave me one efficient solution to the omnipresent problem of wavering attention.Whenever your attention is questioned,respond with a question which itself takes the attacker by surprise.I am making full use of it even now with alarming regularity and perfection,may I add.
Its too big a break that I have taken from work now and its time I went back to it.See, one more good thing about such articles is that you don't have to worry about giving it a propah ending.It can end the moment you want it to unlike the ITAP classes which would go on sometimes even after the alloted time because a certain soul would remind you of his busy existence and the network would go to the dogs.
"...well that's the way life is" remember ?!!
