A content writer....

Before beginning, I would like to say how astonished I am at the response recieved at reviving the blog.

Show off! hmph!

It just goes to show you how fun and amusing it is to actually get to know more about someone's mind. Well, now that it has been inaugrated, I have to ask myself, what's next, before anyone else does.

Show off!! 

Get out  Rudha.
I can't, I am a part of you, and you, mine. we are...
Fine, whatever.

So, as I was saying, there were thoughts whizzing through my head. Not thoughts of this sort, but those much more profound, deeper with essence, meaning and life.

Hm...Philosphical..... I will keep that in mind... 
profound, deeper with essence, meaning and life... hm...

Then, it just struck me. I could write something more about my internship as a content writer, owing to the various questions asked by my relatives as to what exactly I do. In short, to put it in words simpler than peeling a banana, as a content writer, one has to compile articles.

Bananas!! I love bananas!! Let's go bananas!

Articles maybe based on any given topic or a topic that the writer has chosen. Sometimes, he/she is asked to think on any topic and compile an article not shorter than 800 words or three whole paragraphs. I belong more to the second category. To be honest, it is always easier said than done. Putting my butt to the seat and typing every word and weaving them into a paragraph that is perfectly cohesive and coherent, is definitely not a walk in a park.

And to say that it is I who does most of the work... Tch! Tch!!
One word, two letters, NO!

In addition to taking care of the grammer, I also have to make sure that the meaning and the particular infornation, is conveyed to the readers, or my article will simply go down the hill, eventhough I had started it on a perfect note. One of the most important things however, is in choosing the topic. It should be chosen in such a way so as to satisfy the hunger of the critics, who in this case, are the readers-You.

"Satisfy the hunger". Rings a bell? Cravebits.com! 

Also, the most important thing that a writer has to take care of is to make sure that his work is truly his own and not the work of another writer. A writer should make sure that he/she never takes credit for the work of another person copied intentionally.

Its called plagiarism dude!
Like I didn't know that!
Of course you did! I was just showing off...
Show off!
Tit for tat?

Plagiarism is actually a recognised and a  very serious crime that a writer can commit. Adding fuel to the fire, there are now various softwares which can easily detect whether the piece that you have compiled is an original or not within a click of a button.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I copied yours and I failed too...

To crop it short, my job as a content writer is quite demanding and this is exactly what I do when I dont have much college work to do.

college...! You know, when students say that they miss college or school, they really mean the "fun" they have and not really the lessons or the teachers. 
You don'y say! Where did you copy it from? Facebook? Oh the irony! And for the record Rudha, that was totally off the charts. Totally off topic, why did you even say it now?
That's me! I am after all your other side...

Well, I just remembered that I had to post a few more before the deadline given! An assignment it is then!
Don't worry Ani, I have it all planned out.
Why do I find it difficult to trust you?
