Advice for aspiring writers on how to hone your craft.

I'm a writer with style and flair. I rely on my knowledge, insight, and imagination to find what I need to write. I have devoted myself to writing poetry and stories that come from the heart. My aim is to touch my readers in their heart and soul. My dedication and devotion to the art is best expressed in one word, and that is: passion. I have a passion for writing that drives me to achieve the very best. I'm constantly on the search for new material. In my mind, there's always room for improvement. I have a light in me and I'm letting it shine.

The word Deepawali is derived from two Sanskrit words, "Deep" and "Aavali". Among these, Deep means "Diya" (or light which represents knowledge) and Awali means "chain". That is, Deepawali means given or series of lights. It is also called Deepotsav or Deepavali or Diwali. Of these, the term Diwali is most commonly used. The meaning of Deepawali also reflects the meaning of the name of Bharat (India). Bha means "light and knowledge" and Rat means "devoted". Deepawali means a series of lamp i.e. series of knowledge and Bharat means dedicated to knowledge and light.

A site on which one can publish one's fiction. The social networking aspect of the site seems to be limited to the posting of reviews. Having not yet registered an account on this site, I don't know whether or not one can screen the reviews of one's stories. As each story page seems to link to a page of reviews of the story appearing on that page, if the answer to this question is "no", then what one would have, in effect, would be a guestbook that one couldn't moderate, with all of the possibilities for abuse that creates. I don't know that's the case, but I also don't know that's not the case, so I'll set up that account in a few days and learn more. I just didn't want somebody blindly stumbling into trouble, thinking that I had checked out something that I hadn't, yet.
