Writing is a medium of human communication that represents language and emotion with signs and symbols. In most languages, writing is a complement to speech or spoken language. Poetry writing is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language - such as Ancient Greek attempts to define poetry, such as Aristotle's Poetics, focused on the uses of speech in rhetoric, drama, song and comedy which distinguish poetry from more objectively informative, prosaic forms of writing.

Writing is the process of using symbols (letters of the alphabet, punctuation and spaces) to communicate thoughts and ideas in a readable form. A writer does not know who will read their work and if someone will, so write about what you truly want to share and what you believe in. Fiction is inspired by reality.
"I started writing while completing my A levels in Ackworth School. My first book named 'Summer Promises and Other Poems' was published in 2013 while I was in my first year at university.

Initially, blogging involved a personal web log, in which a person would journal about their day. From "web log" came the term "blog." Like most new innovations on the Internet, many entrepreneurs saw a marketing potential in having a blog, and blogging took off from there. Not only can a blog be used for marketing, but also, a blog can be a home business in and of itself.
"After completing my education, I worked for different companies such as NDTV Good Times, Turner International and others at different profiles. I was always passionate for food and travel which inspired me to start my blogging channel by the name Social Cravings, which covers everything one craves for socially."

Writing is a medium of human communication that represents language with signs and symbols. Writing, in other words, is not a language, but a tool used to make languages readable. Within a language system, writing relies on many of the same structures as speech, such as vocabulary, grammar, and semantics, with the added dependency of a system of signs or symbols. The writing context requires writers to have a sense of the reader's expectations and an awareness of conventions for a particular piece of writing. The context of the piece further determines the appropriate tone, level of vocabulary, kind and placement of evidence, genre, and sometimes even punctuation. In order to communicate effectively, we need to order our words and ideas on the page in ways that make sense to a reader.
"I was an avid reader from a young age. When I was just 21 years old, my story was published in the national-level magazine, Sarita. Since then, I haven't looked back and have been an active Writer for the past 25 years."
