Hello everyone!

I hope you all are in good health.

Honestly I didn't have any idea as on what topic I should write today. So, I decided to share with you all an important thing that I did during lockdown. I want to share this with you all so that maybe it can help some of the poets or writers here in doing something productive.

In lockdown I started writing poems. Earlier I had no idea that I have this talent, but one day as I read a poem, it stuck in my mind that I should also try this. I started writing and in a few hours I was done with it. I can't even explain how much happy I felt when I wrote that poem because I expressed my feelings in it and I think all my writer friends will relate to it that when we write something on what we feel or about our thoughts and opinions, it feels so relaxing as if we have shared our thoughts with someone and so I felt the same. I wrote few more poems after that.

So, now I am going to share an amazing news with you all. In march this year, I saw an ad of ‘writers pocket publishing house’ and it was written that new writers, those who are even beginners can submit their poem and if its get selected, then they will have to pay an amount to get their work published in an anthology. For those who don't know anthology is a collection of poems or any other written works, and some anthologies contain different writers and some have works of one writer only. So, this anthology was to be published as of different writers' book. And I was lucky to have my work selected for that anthology named “Intoxication". 

When I received the mail of selection I was extremely happy, but was little confused too because I was doing something like this for first time, and I had to pay too so I was not sure if the publishing house is trustable or not, but my teacher said that one has to take chances, and so I paid for it and did the payment. After few days, I received the certificate of publication and then, I was sure that I made no mistake in participating in this anthology.

I will continue my story in another blog and will also share the cover image of the book with you all.

Can't wait to share :)

Thank you.
