One thing I learned from this pandemic is that; it's possible to stay home and still have fun. Now I can literally hear some of you boo-ing this ridiculous idea but every once in a while we should take one for the team. The virus is still out there lurking through our streets and infecting God knows how many people. If you ask me, I think it's much safer to close our blinds and sit until its all over. And if staying put at our home is the best chance to survive, I think compromising our fair bit of fun is totally worth it.
Speaking of which, I might have a bunch of fun-filled stuff you can get yourself involved in over the weekend. Oh yes! Not only you can catch these without leaving your premises but also enjoy them with your friends and family.
Come on... it'll be a blast if you steer into the skid rather than sulk about the situation all day long.
Looks like you're in. So, behold a list of 7 super-exciting virtual activities & events you should attend this weekend.
Masterclass
1. Ruskin Bond Teaches Writing

Not only will you learn to build chapters, characters and book titles but also figure out your own niche and take the first step towards other aspects of writing such as editing, publishing and power of observation.
