Welcome to my virtual housewarming party!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog, or as I like to call it, my virtual house. My name is Sunaina Kaur Nijjar, but for convenience, I write under the name SK Nijjar. Find out more about me here. One of the first things people ask a writer is when did you realize you wanted to be a writer. As cliche as it may sound, I’ve always liked writing. Whenever we’d have to write a poem or personal story in class, I’d be excited while everyone else was complaining. This made me a weird kid, but whatever, I don’t think there’s a such thing as normal. I first started writing novels when I was in high school, and I’ve been an avid reader since I was able to read. I’m one of those bookworms that gets so involved in a book that when it ends, I feel depressed and sad. And then really excited when the next book comes out! I mainly enjoy reading series for this reason, so that you get to spend more time with your favorite characters. 

Like many writers out there, I’ve been writing stories and leaving them to collect virtual dust in the google docs drawer. Now, I’ve had enough of that! I’ve been an avid reader for many years and I have enough confidence in my stories and characters to share them with the world. When I started writing novels in high school, I wasn’t able to follow through on finishing my stories. I was too busy studying, binge watching Bones, or hanging out with friends. When I did have the time, I often got stuck and would eventually put it away. I have found my writing again, but it’s now more than just a hobby. Writing has become a need of mine. I need to write like I need to breathe. I’ll discuss this more in future blog posts.
