I attended a writer’s meet last week. It was more of a casual affair with some content writer friends gathered to enjoy the rain over some hot pakoras and tea. From Euro Cup to Brexit, we happily shared our views on all the hot topics. Soon, the discussion shifted on us, the content writers.

It seemed that many of us were disillusioned with the life we are living and needed something to get out of the rut.
