It can be very easy for one's voice to be drowned out by the commotion on social media. We were eager to hear Gurwinder's thoughts on how authors can distinguish themselves on Twitter and Substack, as well as what motivates him to continue writing and instructing others.

"Write what you most want to write about rather than what you think other people want to read. This is because, if you're passionate about something, you can make even the most boring subject interesting. However, if you're chasing popular trends, you'll be doing the same thing as millions of other writers while struggling to maintain the interest needed to consistently create compelling content," he explained. Writers ought to be honest with themselves and ignore the crowd. Do what you're passionate about, not what you hope will make you popular.

The modern world is incredibly complex and interconnected, making it difficult for an individual to know where to turn for accurate information. With the prevalence of fake news and misinformation, it is important to carefully vet sources before trusting them.

It is essential to consider the qualifications of the source, the reputation of the source, and the evidence provided to support the claims made. Additionally, it is important to examine the sources of the source—where did they obtain their information?

This can help ensure that the information being presented is accurate and reliable. Ultimately, it is crucial to be a critical thinker and to be aware of our own biases when it comes to selecting sources to trust.
