Moon Light Bulletin #13 Creates Quite a Rhyming Scheme
It shares about love, life, and everything in between
Hey everyone,
I know it’s been a while since I thanked all of my writers and readers who have shared their brilliance in the form of poems, essays, stories, and self-help writeups. Everything has reached straight to my heart.
In the last month, I learned a valuable lesson of setting your loved ones free. And when I said free, I meant from putting unnecessary restrictions which never let the relationships flourish the way they are meant to be.
When I started Moon Light, I had collected some ideas from the big pubs about how my publication would function. One idea I got from ‘The Writing Co-operative’ was to make following their pub a compulsion.
I thought it was a brilliant idea to get followers.
But I forgot that was not my ideology as a person. In fact, the last thing I can do is keep someone bound in my life against their wish or make it a necessary condition. Because love should have no conditions.
And I followed my heart.
I removed the second condition to join my publication which was to become Moon Light’s follower or else people won’t be added as writers. Now that condition is gone, I feel so relieved.
And to my surprise, the followers whose numbers had become stagnant went from 76 to 92 in just a month. And I couldn’t believe it. I am just so happy that I stayed true to my nature and removed all restrictions.
Because my ultimate goal was let Moon Light Confessions be a space where people can share everything they feel like with just a pinch of love and humanity.
And as far as new members are concerned, I was honored to welcome these great writers into my Moon Light Family. These people have become such an eminent part of Moon Light that it’s almost like a dream.
Thank you to the existing and the new members for choosing Moon Light.

The Awesome Submissions I Feel Honored to Share
I can see so many editors coming up with great publications and reader engagements and here I am thinking about how can I come up with creative ways of presenting my writer’s work.
So I have written two lines for each of the stories submitted to me in a way that rhyme and/or describe what the story is all about.
I hope I have done complete justice to your work and please excuse me if I couldn’t do justice to your ideas.
