Restarted writing & penning down my thoughts

I think it is weird to be writing blogs in 2026! It was a cool thing when I had started writing in 2006 - a full 20 years ago.

In these 20 years, writing has changed a lot - length of the pieces, number of words, platforms (medium, blog, twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram), device (computer, laptop, tablet, mobile phones).

In fact, I do not even know if anybody reads blogs these days. I guess that gives me a sense of anonymity as well? I can just keep writing without worrying about this popping up in social media feeds.

I had been postponing this for a while now. Should I write on blog? Medium.com? LinkedIn? How would the world interpret - friends? colleagues? future employers? future employees? Guess I am overthinking again.

I published an article just now. Believe it or not, I had penned down in the early months of 2022. I was hoping to collaborate with a old colleague at that point in time. That collaboration did not materialize, and the article slept in its MS Word file for 4+ years. 

Hope I do not lose momentum in this 2nd attempt. Hope to share my thoughts with friends, colleagues & well wishers. Of late, the mind is buzzing with thoughts - if anything, I hope this serves as an outlet.

Thanks for stopping by - after all these years!

;-)
