The Elements of Style

Author : William Strunk Jr. , E. B. White


This is the book of style for creative writing. It is a compact and very impactful book to learn basic of English language and creative writing as well.

To make sentences more comprehensible and impactful I learned some lessons from this book…

Try to use nouns and verbs as much as possible and rely less on objective networks.

Write in a clear way to communicate better. Write in such a level to make the best quality of the content.

Write the best word order to make compact and clear sentences and use concrete language.

Do not explain the content with irrelevant words.

We are the writers. We have to develop our own style, our own way of explaining, describing, telling and everything that pertain to us. Through our writing our aim is to entertain the reader with clear communication, with easy language and with familiar words.

For learning and pursuing creative writing we have to read a lot and write a lot. In reading we should read different genre, in writing we should write our message clearly and maintain daily routine to write. This is the key to a successful writer.

The power of your subconscious mind book is written by Joseph Murphy . It is a self-help type book . In the book we read about the power of our subconscious mind. Our mind is the only leader of our thinking. It defines our success or failure. It decides our capabilities to do the things possible or impossible. We read in the book… People all around may discourage us but we should try and try until the task is done. We can do everything what we can think, if we prepare our subconscious mind. Our thoughts decide our life and actions to try to be positive most of the time. We have healing power in our subconscious mind. Every disease first develops in our mind then reaches to our body. We should govern our task according to our thinking. In any situation of our life we should think that we are happy, harmonious, strong, loving and careful etc. Negative thoughts like stress , anxiety, fear, tension etc. destroy our thinking and result in serious diseases. Peace of Mind is the greatest...

We all know today is 15th August Independence Day. It is a very great day for us as a citizen of India. Today everyone is sharing photos and updating status on all the social media sites, like the whole country is coloured with tricolour. We all celebrate this day every year with full zeal and in patriotic way. We all have a cordial nature for our soldiers. We will always remember the sacrifice of soldiers in Jammu Kashmir operation (1948), China war (1962), Pakistan war (1965), Bangladesh war (1971), IPKF operation Pawan in Sri Lanka (1987), Kargil conflict (1999), and many more operations that gave befitting response to those who tried to dismantle the sovereignty of India. It feels very good to see everyone is patriotic and showing love towards the country but this feeling should be long lasting not only on Independence Day or in Republic day. In these two days we proudly hoist flag everywhere but after one or two days we saw many tore flags on the road, in garbage like a waste pap...

Unblocking The Most Beautiful Heart

It was 25 th  2010 July, first day of my engineering college. I was very sincere, so I was there to attend the class there were three boys and two girls, others were absent because it was first day and some people take the first day lightly. It was Reena ma’am‘s class but before teaching there was an introduction session. Though I was not good at English but I managed to introduce myself and told her about myself. After sometime it was turn of a girl. Her name was Jasmine, she was very busy in reading some books I thought she did not mind what’s going on. Ma’am said, “Jasmine… tell me about yourself.” She hastily stood up; she was very chubby, cute girl with pink cheeks. She introduced herself; i was very closely observing her and her beauty. Some of her hair locks were disturbing her vision by playing with her spectacles. For me it was like love at first sight. Her pink lips were like petals of rose. Her eyes were big like it was hiding a deep mysterious ocean in which i could ...
