The professionalism and Non - professionalism in the writing world

If you ask me what is the biggest issue plaguing the website content writing industry today, the answer would be disorganization or simply put very very unorganized and unprofessional industry.
Now you may wonder, in the field where hundreds of articles are churned out of humans each day, who for a few dollars go on war with unrealistic deadlines and a lot of quality instructions, how come things be unorganized and unprofessional?
The answer to this, can be found in the question itself. Several people who are into this field, h ave had no prior experience of writing. Some have never even done writing, ever. A tout culture flourishes, with people who have only negotiating and business acumen, getting into something, which I consider a very very high level of art.
Then the thing about deadlines. Has anyone ever cared that what goes onto the writer to write so fast, and on similar topics. A degree of exhaustion happens, which is only cured by instant money. In hurry, a lot many times, mistakes happen, which are then seen as part of misconduct and unprofessional-ism on the part of the writer.
Then comes the issue of pricing. The worst aspect of all. In any form of art, a person should be paid according to his/her talent. Here in the web content writing space, market forces of demand and supply set the rate for writers. Many writers I have seen are overpaid and some very well talented are underpaid, for simple reasons of economics. A writer's wage is more dependent on negotiations and bargains than on his/her talent and acumen to write.
And I feel bad about this whole process. And moreover, thier is no alternative scheme I can think of for this process.

Frauds and Scams that have had happened, where people made quick bucks by selling articles of writers and paying them nothing for it. This is has caused a large amount of insecurity in minds of the writing populace, and has hampered the client - clientele relationships. Everyone here looks into the eye of the another with loads of suspicion.

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...
