Mistakes in my first blog!!

I took less than 5 minutes to understand what kind of mistakes one can make in a write up which is not proofread. The thing I appreciate myself and pat my back is that my first blog was written in the time gap between two back to back conference calls (in less than 5 mins) on a boring Monday evening.


Being a technical writer by profession, such kinda mistake is really not acceptable from my end. With these lines as the background, posting this one again, this time proofreading it again and again :)!! 

My first blog

Though, I have been a professional Technical Writer for at least 3 years now, never had written or have written something creative like a blog. I always used to feel that and still feel creative writing like blog is more suitable for solitary or lonely people. However, this idea to create a blog was down the lane suggested by one of my students, who exclaimed, "Sir, I'd love to read your blog, if you write one." Though that instilled me to create a blog, it never happened. Another inspiration was my college buddy, Rakesh, who had created a blog of his own and started writing over the weekends, but now I'm not sure whether he still continues (I'm not a serious follower of any of the blogs). Again after couple of years, after speaking to Praveen last night, and I am interested to write up something, though junk, just want to start off. Lemme see where it takes me!! With these few words, I submit my very first blog.

The diet in the usage of English language is accredited to my Tech Writing profession which encourages crisp and straightforward language instead of a roundabout one.
