About Me

me_edited.jpgI am a keen observer of life, a parent and I also work (which means I have to earn otherwise I dont get to pay my bills). Well I am also an aspiring writer (fantasy is a preferred genre). I blog so that I can sound off my ideas without driving my family insane with all the ideas I come out with. I would love it if you leave a comment when you visit my blog.

  38. so kind of you to visit and comment on my tanka.
    I looked at several mags and then a few “how to” articles and then set my hand free.

    Your focus should be on what you know and live like you’ve been doing. Being a big reader will make you a more successful writer.

  66. some of your posts have been such eye openers ( I’ve mailed the post about dealing with unsupportive mothers to my mom- she has been feeling like an unwanted daughter for ages now, and more importantly, it is a check list that I don’t turn out to be an NPD myself) .

    Enjoying to the hilt going through your archives…

  67. Hi I found your blog very interesting.I am a debut author. My fiction Delayed Monsoon got published towards the end of January 2011. Its a woman oriented fiction.
    Delayed Monsoon is the story of Abhilasha and any lady can find an Abhilasha in herself, atleast in her deep self, feel the suppression and the pain of loosing the dreams and traits… the pain of a woman on relations… the infidelity in current social scenario… finding the soul satisfying love at the fag end of her life. Drawn in the contemporary context, the fiction makes a touching story. I was wondering if it can be featured in your blog.
