Yes at times some situations make us belief it is ‘Boon In Disguise.‘
I am thinking of COVID time, oh do not jump into conclusions. Those years were a sad moments for many and it was a pitiable situation which was not in our hands. But on the other hand, many of us like me, writers found a greener pastures on the other side.
The kids, adolescents, parents and the elders were in a fix as they could not find a way to cope up with situations.
Watching and hearing sad news each day all the time, many were frustrated and fall sick.
But at times in such a situation, a brighter side too comes up.
Yes, it was a boon in disguise to many upcoming writers like me.
Deepa Vishal, a good writer is my cousin brother’s daughter- in – law. As I too loved to pen down my thoughts, and my husband and myself were alone as our children were in different states.
Relatives and friends were in our town but no one could meet each other.
I asked her in which platform she was writing and she helped me to join Momspresso App. Yes, it was a Boon In Disguise and since I started writing in Momspresso started by Chan Preet, there was no full stop.
I gathered a lot of friends and young writers who fondly started calling me ‘Amma’ as I was one of the eldest in the group. We used to get prompts 100 words, 300 or more words blogs. I was happy to write and was appreciated and was selected to be in Live discussion about our awarded post. Oh! that was one of my best day in my life. My 1st ever Zoom meet.
Many of us were in contact and exchanged our thoughts.
Sadly the platform was to be put out off. We were asked to save our posts and they had given us time. I could save many of my 100 words story but not the lovely blogs, I wrote. Many were heart broken and called me. I told them, ‘It is a sad plight but be positive some other platform will come up.‘ Sadly all my 100 words got deleted. I was disappointed but God is not unkind and gives you another opportunity.
And lo! The Momma Clan happened and one of my sister like, as she calls me didi, Shashi Thakur told about TMC.
It was again a Boon In Disguise as some of the earlier youngsters whom I had lost touch, recognized me as their loving’ Amma’ back again.
This journey of writing started and is continuing till today and I hope and pray it will continue for many more years.
Harshita Udani, the founder of TMC, throws in the well of writing, by giving good prompts, to pen poems and complete the story.
Oh! Was I happy to be in this group? Of course, as this is the platform where I received so many E- Certificates and Awards in my life. I have been a part in group discussion of poetry in Zoom meeting.
What else do I want to spend my time usefully and to be appreciated and loved by many in this TMC group. Thank you Harshita and many other loving writers, to keep boosting me and to pave away to keep myself busy at 74. Harshi has given me a pen name, YL( young lady) as I never miss to take part in most of the Blog according to my ability.
I am enjoying my this part of life very much. I get to read good articles, blogs and to be a part in Anthology.
Let us together, help this group grow bigger and wider all over the world.
I am still ,’Amma ‘ or ‘Didi ‘ to many in this. There’s no age limit to learn. Keep learning and keep writing and of course putting your contribution at times in TMC. Harshita keeps adding many writers but I feel sad to see hardly a few people from such big group, write regularly.
At least once a while, each should take part and write and keep boosting all co- writers. What say?
Good Luck to all.
Keep writing and publishing your books and get it displayed in various book stalls.
The Momma Clan
