What is Parody Post?

-
As this is my first post, I'll be writing about the reasons why I started this blog. The answer is pretty simple. To make money. Hehe. Yeah, I can already visualize thousand of people rolling their eyes over my crass sense of humor. Sorry about that. So, I'll like to make few things clear. Parody Post is a serious blog, and its domain name is nothing but its author's poor attempt at irony.  We'll be discussing serious topics--about art and literature, terrorism and why Donald Trump is beardless Santa Claus of doom. So with that being said, let's rock and roll.

We live in an era of nerds. Yes, you read it right. There is no need to recoil. Marvel's movies are making billions of dollars.  Shows like Game of Thrones and Strangers Things are ruling the hearts of people from different walks of life. Stephen King's adaptations are streaming out cinema houses. So, yeah. I rest my case. But what does era of nerds actually mean? Well, it means the era of awesome stories (which sadly includes Fifty Shades of Grey).  So why are we so hungry for stories? That answer for that is also pretty simple: Because we know we are going to die. Arts and literature exist because of our mortality. As we are going to die, we are going to miss out on several things. Hell, we already failed to see the creation of the universe, living dinosaurs, mars with oceans. You get the point, right? There are plenty of things we will like to do but won't be able to do it. Art and literature give us those experiences. They allow us to explore Mars, dance with a tinman in emerald city, fight dragons and get screwed by an asocial billionaire.

Parody Post is about this stories. About their tellers. About the craft, with bonus content which includes aliens, conspiracy theories, short-stories, news and a little humor to spice things up.

And before we part, I would like to tell about myself.  I'm an Indian writer. I've written several short stories, poems, and novels--one of which will be soon published by a leading Indian Publisher.

PS:- Blog topic suggestions are welcomed.

How to write a blog when you don't have enough time?

-
Everyone wants to start a blog, yet most of them fail to make some time to write one. In our fast moving modern world, the free time has become a thing of the past, a myth. There are emails to write, clients to meet, birthdays to attend, and no time to follow your hobby, no time to work on the blog you always dreamed of beginning.  But all hope is not lost, you can still start that blog, all you need to the learn is the craft of creating a detailed blog really quick. So, how can you write a blog within an hour or so? Well, the answer is actually easy: You need to understand the subject matter well even before starting the blog. If you don't know what you are writing on, it will take aeons to complete it.  The reason for this procrastination. That's every blogger's biggest enemy, the monster that prevents you from utilizing the time at hand. The more you are oblivious to the subject of the blog, the more likely you will spend your time procrastinating. So, before sta

What is a good story?

-
Anyone can write stories, but very few can write stories worth reading. Writing is a skill that can be learned and earned, but only through sheer hard work and passion. A good story is something that lets people slip into someone else’s mind. It’s something that lets them swim through the ocean of human conscience, allows them to ride on a rollercoaster of emotions, shows them that life is meaningless and yet can have a meaning, and assure them that they are not alone and that in the end, everything will be okay, it always is.

Sneak A Peek Into My New Novel

-
PROLOGUE It was nearing midnight. Jorganso didn't like the way things had gone. Their attack had failed, and to make the matter worse, he had lost his way in the dark, baleful forest with silence so loud that it disquieted him.   He was the only one who had survived the retaliatory attack full of vehemence and gore, but thankfully he still had the special delivery with him: the package that would have changed the course of the battle—if they had gotten the chance of using it. But they didn’t, and now the thing inside his red backpack was his highest priority.    “I'll have to take it back into the city,” Jorganso told himself as he hurried through damp, mist-covered floor, his eyes squinting in darkness.    He fumbled around the trunk of a vast tree, which suddenly loomed out of darkness, narrowly dodged its low hanging branch, stumbled over its gnarled root, lost his balance, somehow stopped the fall and resumed his run. The forest was cloaked in fog, and hence he was fi
