• Mumbai Diaries :Beware! The Titans are at war

  

  On the 20th, we woke up to blue skies – summer skies. I had forgotten how that looked- my eyes having got used to all shades of grey for the last 2 and a half months. Even the sun looked different that day – glowing amber- orange not pale watery yellow. I drew the curtains […]

• He, She

  

  I tried writing a lipogram, for the very first time in my life. For all those who are unaware of what a lipogram is (don’t worry, I had no clue about it too, before day before yesterday!), I’ll explain it. As per the dictionary a lipogram is a composition from which the writer systematically omits […]

• Mumbai Diaries: Scattered Thoughts

  

  I’m feeling a little stuck. While I continue to write and share my writing with the world, I’m not sure what next? I’m not sure where do I go from here? I’m feeling a little swamped. Maybe more than a little. The weather has nothing to do with how I feel. I’ve never been one […]

• My ‘littlest’ fan loves me more than he loves Rusty!

  

  I had gone to pick my younger daughter from school, after lunch with a few friends. It was one of those ‘girls’ day out’ fun afternoons. How we became friends is because we all have a kid studying in the same class. But our kids are not friends’ with each other. We’ve chosen to be […]

• I can never find one like you

  

  I woke up this morning wanting to talk, to someone who doesn’t judge, to someone who knows all sides of me. While my husband fits the bill, he’s my husband. And that doesn’t do it for me. Its just not the same as talking to a friend of the same gender. Well, its not like […]
