A New Beginning

BassemKurdi.com… hmm, doesn’t it sound awfully egotistical to have a domain in my name? Well, the reason behind that is to have a place of my own in which I could publish my stories, poems and creative writings in addition to blogging about many different things, all under my name. I have stumbled upon some of my writings being shared online and sometimes printed and distributed around without any due credit to me or in instances, stolen and claimed to be written by someone else.

If you read my last post about Getting Published, you’ll see that it has proven to be more difficult than I have expected it to be. I had refrained form posting the last 5 chapters of Layla online because I thought it would be better to keep them until the story is published in a book but I have changed my mind. If you click on Layla, you’ll find the complete story there written in 29 chapters. I hope you enjoy reading it and your comments regarding the entire story and how it concluded will be much appreciated.

So, here’s to a new beginning. Bookmark the site, update your links and tell everyone about it, please ;)

    The latest concerning the Layla story is bittersweet information; I’m glad I don’t have to wait, and a little disappointed that it is all online now. Ah, well.

    Exactly how I felt… bittersweet… putting it online wasn’t my first choice however it’s a good alternative at least for now ;)
