Yes, I can write about this as well - I am not sure when, though.

Hi,could u please write a blog about studying classical game

Very helpful articles including others on Tactics and handling treats! Thanks!
I would love to have a bunch of training positions to start working on. Any suggestions around here for such databases?

Other topic that I am very curious about is the thinking process for assessing a position and finding the best moves / plans which you can use in a more general sense. I think I am starting (!) to have some isolated understandings about tactical patterns and some positional elements in general but I find myself confused when different elements are present simultaneously. How to determine the priorities etc..?

i.e. Sometimes I get fixated on keeping my own "better" bishop on the board or avoiding trading the opponents "bad" pieces just to find myself positionally lost on other positional elements (allowing a weak square or giving a file to the opponents rook etc...). Such article would be of great help! :-)
