Hello, my dear readers! Do you know that January 12 -18 is International Blog Delurking week? I saw a lot of bloggers on my timeline sharing posts on this topic and sure enough, I was lurking around without even mumbling a word. Such was the week that has gone by. Coming days also I sense more chaos and work waiting for me.
Coming to the International Blog Delurking, the idea is to keep aside the buy schedule and say a word or two to show support to the blogger. Isn’t it nice to say hi and let know that you are here at least once in a while? I think so. If you are a silent reader of my blog, now is the time to come out of the shadow and say hi. If you are a regular reader and commenter, I’m most glad that you are here.
Do you read me often? Or is it your first time here? Do you like what you read in this space? Do you have any suggestions for me to improve? Don’t forget to tell me what you dislike here. Or if you have nothing to share just say hi to me, will ya? I am waiting to hear from you, my silent reader, and the not so silent ones. π
Linking with happinessandfood, #MondayMusings, and #MicroblogMondays.




I am not a lurker and you are one of first few blogger friends. I have always loved your verses and stories from your life. Hugs and thank you for joining!

Saying hello. Last year blogging took a back seat both with writing and reading. So there was no lurking either π but hope to be around more this year.

I like reading your poetry, and also your no-fiction posts – your musings, the words that flow from the bottom of your heart – they tell me so much about you, about the life you live and the struggles you face.
It’s good reading your post, Vini….Keep writing, keep sharing! β€

I have always enjoyed reading your blogs, Vinitha. I don’t remember coming here and not leaving a comment on with you have posted. Although, there are times I have not left comments on some rare posts by other bloggers because of my lack of knowledge or understanding on the topic.

Hi Vinitha!
I don’t like to miss any of your post on this blog because I like to read real life stories more than fiction posts. I know you have a crazy schedule but I do hope to see you around more in 2018.

I too hope to get consistent this year, Anamika. But I am not going to force it if I fall short on time. I am trying to at least get consistent on reading and commenting on a few blogs daily. Because reading motivates me to write. ?
Iβm so glad that you like my nonfiction posts, Anamika. These posts are just me thinking out loud, nothing profound. Iβm just happy that there are people who actually read it. I never expected anyone would read. ? Thank you for the encouraging words. β€οΈ
