These are just too good Raju. I’d love to tell you which ones feel relatable but I’m currently suffering from the [if I comment everyone will know my greatest fears] block so maybe I’ll DM you.
LOVE your doodles. What's relatable? All of it. I may have, over the years, built a wall by placing one block on top of the other. Once a wall is up, it's so tough to scale it that it feels like too much work. Luckily, walls can be brought down, not be demolishing them, but carving windows and doors in them. I have begun with a peephole -- a tiny ray of light. It's a nice beginning. I'm addicted to, "Kaun padhega yaar, meri kahani?" I love how you've put them all in one place, the cynics, the critics, the naysayers. Now, to shoo them away!
Uff yes.. carving windows for the rays of light.. and to see each other through them, knowing that we share these blocks and hence can exchange ways to move across them 🖤
"Suffering" through most with varying intensity for some time now. Also, the feeling of everything reads so much better in my head before I actually put them down so maybe I will just think about them and not write.
These are so cute! Loved the reminder that we can look at our failings with humour :)
I'll add two - recently had to overcome the [my last post got 5x the normal engagement so whatever I write next must live up to that] block and [holy shit people are subscribing, I better write something worth their while] block. Good blocks in some ways, but blocks nonetheless.
Loved this! Its relatability made me smile and shy away in search of a shell because of the vulnerability I felt thinking - “Wow! Is this person reading my mind?”.
The [everyone will know what I am thinking] block. It's like you compiled a list of all that I have ever told myself and combined with cute doodles. Love this list and will look forward to one that provides an antidote to all of these – 36 Flavours of Must Write Now :)
Thank you Rishabh…That is ongoing for me unconsciously all the time. Hope we value wherever we are in the world and flaunt it like its Brooklyn or Bandra or rural Britain 🫶🏼♥️🌻

I love the doodles!! They're so accurate. I especially loved the fancy literary editors won't like my work block. Made me giggle 🤭

Thank you Naina 😁 It’s my favourite too meri saari bhadaas nikal gayi.
I have fallen prey to so many of these flavours in the past few years!
Currently it is - the [I’m jealous of writers from bigger cities or developed countries] block
Thank you for writing this amazing piece, I am sure it speaks out to most writers.
