HS_KP: Introduction & Good Bye...

Dear Visitor,

Welcome to this blog.

I used to publish on this blog until recently. I have now moved to a new blog address, which you can see in the very last entry on on this blog (dated 4th October 2010).

Blogging is basically a publishing tool for me: I do not want to take the hassle of pursuing publishers, so am publishing my writing through this and other blogs.

I apologize in advance to any person or group that I may hurt through my writing.

Having said that, I also want to put it on record that I do not intend to hurt any person, group or any other entity capable of getting hurt.

These blogs mainly contains my writing related to my philosophy of life, my poetry and my thoughts about management of life and other related aspects.

You can read more about the above in the very first blog (post-marked April 20, 2008, 3:12 PM, titled ‘Welcome’) here.

To get to the specific kind of my writing that you may want to read, kindly press the relevant label (below the writing). The detail can be seen in the description of the categories below.

Anyone and everyone is free to use any material from my blogs, so long as it is done without any ill-intention towards anyone else. No permission is required from me.

If you end up making some profit from any material taken from here, and you feel that you would like to share that with me, you have two options. You can either ‘pay forward’ what you believe to be my share; or you can pass it on to me.

If you need to contact me, you can do so via vassoc@gmail.com.
