(writing) requires so much effort, leads perhaps to the murder of one’s aunts, will make one almost certainly late for luncheon, and may bring one into very grave disputes with certain very good fellows

- Virgina Woolf (A Room of one's own)

This thread is aimed at relieving the pressure off civil society by providing self-obsessive writing-fancy types a platform to air their views and view their airs.

not necessarily a contribution but I want to acknowledge my happiness on seeing Virginia Woolf's statement here. I loved to read her Mrs. Dalloway. About writing there are varied views while some writers preferred to write in seclusion there are others like Ismat Chugtai, who would write amidst all the mayhem whcih helped her give a colloquial flavor in her stories.
