| Dear WDC Community, It's been ages since I was last active here. Some of you might remember me, as I was a very active member (and writer) here until a couple of years ago. But unfortunately, life changes fast and things that mean a lot to us often get left behind. However, I'm reaching out to any of my old friends who might still be active and would like to catch up. Pls do hit me up! I'd also like to reach out to the Community as well, in case anyone can refer me to any remote or freelance working opportunity. Times have been tough and any referral would be highly appreciated. Thanks and best regards! |
| Welcome back. I think I have read some of your items. Always looking for more new and interesting reads. Stuck on writing jobs though. You could try looking into kindle vella. It's Amazon's try ad pay per episode stories I made 67 bucks on ten episodes before I decided I didn't enjoy the format... |

HOW DID I MISS THIS?  |

| Hi! I've missed this place and the people here so much. I'd been away for so long but back now, hopefully. While I was away, however, I did manage to win a short story writing competition and get published. So...it's not been a complete loss, I feel. I certainly owe this place for that! Gonna start working in a bank soon, so bye bye writing! I really don't want that to happen...but life! |
Nothing beats the feeling of getting a birthday wish from your crush, lol  "I'm lost somewhere, in the skies, never to return, never to be the same, again." Why can't it be my birthday everyday? |
| I'd have to change the privacy of A LOT of my pieces if that happens, lol You know that, don't you Elycia Lee ☮ *wink wink*? |
Got an Article Published in The News!!! This day could not have started off any better! A shout out to GabriellaR45  , Pat ~ Rejoice always!  and this wonderful place, we call WdC. This would not have happened if it wasn't for the awesome people here, Gabs and Ms. Pat in particular! https://www.thenews.com.pk/print/221011-Climate-of-threats P.S. They could use a better team of proofreaders. They changed the tense of a sentence without editing the helping verb, lol  |
| I'm so very proud of you, Naveed! You have so much to offer your country and the world. Keep your dream alive, and never hesitate to let me know if I can help! 😊👍 |
| Naveed, I tried to comment on your article, but the web site is giving me trouble. In case it doesn't post, this is what I said: Naveed, your article has reminded us of the seriousness of neglecting to appreciate the impact that climate change has had and continues to have on the world. Many Americans, myself included, were shocked at the president's action. It shows a selfishness that is embarrassing to us as a nation. The president continues to make decisions that go against the ideals America has long held. Your consciousness of this and other world issues is amazing in one so young. Your pen promises to be mightier than the sword. I hope to see many more articles from you. |
| "...Nawaz Sharif, despite having "strong reservations" on the SC’s verdict, has stepped down from his post as the premier." Are you kidding me? You have strong reservations? Still? Have some dignity man; you were the Prime Minister once for heaven's sake!  And "stepped down"? No, you haven't "stepped down". You had the chance to, but you didn't. You've been KICKED OUT! Quit playing with words and leave it up to me. I can do it better, I assure you, Mr. I'm-going-to-jail-soon! https://www.dawn.com/news/1348191 |
| Do you hear the birds singing? Do you see the flowers dancing? Do you feel the wind blowing your hair away? Do you smell justice? Do you? Huh? Huh? Well I do, and I'm sitting here in a stinky office. Wanna know why? "Nawaz Sharif has just been disqualified by the Supreme Court of Pakistan on the charges of corruption." I can't remember the last time I was this happy in my entire life. Pakistan really is changing! This is just the beginning though, for now is the time to push on and bring ALL of those who've stolen from the people of Pakistan to justice. It's time to eradicate corruption from Pakistan once and for all! Bring the stolen dough back to Pakistan, pay off the debt that these corrupt idiots have burdened us with, attain "true" freedom and then watch Pakistan rise on the wings of Angels! There really is Someone watching, I guess, for there's no chance in hell that I'd have gotten to see this day if there wasn't! |
~ Aqua ~ this guy was the BIGGEST and the ROUNDEST hurdle in the way, lol. The fact that he has been disqualified (still can't believe it) is surreal. We might get to see a better Pakistan, after all :')  LostGhost: Seeking & Learning this is massive. Corruption will finally become a taboo in Pakistan, after the dismissal of this godfather (the prime minister of Pakistan was called "the godfather" by the Supreme Court. That's how rotten this guy is). |
What saddens me is the incompetency of our government, the political system and the people, us. We should have taken better steps sooner. After so much time this result came. Now what I am afraid of is that the new PM will be of the same party as Nawaz Sharif and his mindset will be similar to Nawaz's.  I do hope that Shahbaz sharif gets a chance to come into the spotlight and really make a difference, continue the work on a bigger scale that he is doing now. I know he is a member of the Sharif family but still, he's not as corrupt as the rest. Us ki shakal se hi pata chal jata hai he's somewhat an honest guy. |
| Here's the positive side of it all: The government has been dormant and irrelevant for more than an year now. The fact of the matter is that Pakistan moved FORWARD regardless. All of the functions went on as usual while the entire cabinet played lawyer for Nawaz (can you believe it? Idiotic buffoons). It just goes to show that one can hold a country hostage only for so long. After that, the people holding the country back just become irrelevant. Political system? Well...democracy has a pre-requisite to be effective in my opinion: education. The democracy in Pakistan is just a shadow of the original meaning of it. But I'm positive that it'll change now. And the people...well...don't forget that it was the PEOPLE that made the Supreme Court take action. There are good people here who can change not only themselves but the country as well. All the people need is a clean guy at the top; for me that guy is Imran Khan. Had there been no Imran Khan, Nawaz Sharif would still be the PM, Panama leaks would've been forgotten, Pakistan wouldn't have won a world cup either The mindset WILL change now! The most corrupt fish is gone. I repeat: THE MOST CORRUPT FISH IS GONE! Now that a person like Nawaz has been convicted, people will think twice before taking over power to fill their pockets. Look at Zardari, lol. Sitting abroad, scared to death that he'll meet the same fate if he returns Shahbaz isn't clean either, lol. Remember Model Town? And if you're talking about "shakal" then no one looks more "Shareef" than Nawaz Shareef xD *Laugh* As Imran says: Mian sahab, yeh kia masoom si shakal bana kar roz jhoot bolne ajatay ho? But yeah, Shahbaz beats Nawaz any day. At least he can speak without needing the aid of chits, lol. How embarrassing it was too look at your Prime Minister addressing you...reading from chits |
| Supervisor: What do you do in your free time, Naveed? Me: I don't know. I write, sometimes, I guess. Supervisor: You write? How wonderful! Your next project's to "write" down the SOP manual for the entire Supply Chain department of the Company. Me: ...*I don't write! I don't write!* Life: Too late  Never, I mean never, tell these corporate blokes that you write. They'll mistake you for a typist. Lesson learned, sigh! |
| I wrote this last night, half asleep, for I didn't want go fully asleep, lol My version of partying on a Saturday night Do tell me what you think, if you get the time
|
After two days of continuous struggle, I have a feeling that writing fantasy might just be out of my league  Serves me right for ignoring books in the genre, for so many years now, Harry Potter included |
...I just took a half an hour power nap at the internship  . Never thought that I'd have to see this day |
| I read stories and poetry at americanliterature.com. I'll forever be indebted to LostGhost: Seeking & Learning for this, lol . I'd have been dead by now if it wasn't for this website |
| This is the best thing that I've read in months! https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-never-give-up-yourself-lessons-from-historys-... |
| I've been thinking about improving my reviewing lately, and I've come to the decision that I'll be reviewing a piece, at least, everyday (if my internet allows it, that is ). So, if anyone has pieces that they'd like to get reviewed, feel free to inbox me or comment here and I'll get around to them, hopefully, provided that I don't find anything MORE interesting to do in my life . Or, I'll just go berserk in my friends' portfolios if it comes down to it I'll be looking forward to your requests! P.S. I do not read or review erotica, adult or books. |
| You can also review a newbie- by clicking the Community found on the left corner while facing the monitor screen, find review a newbie or read or review. But if you like to have a sneak on any chapter of my first novel, I'll be very much happy.  "Wilcatson" |
After months of writing depressing stories, I've finally mustered up a story that, I believe, is inspirational—or positive to say the least . One thing that I've learnt today is that inspirational writing does not come naturally to me . Do take a look and tell me how it is, if you get the time!
