That's Me





 
I write because I have always enjoyed writing, ever since I was six. It gave me joy, making use of my free time putting pen to paper. As I grew older I found an audience and with it immense encouragement to write some more; enough to make it my ‘work’. In a way, writing for me is a coming together of the personal and the professional. The home and the world. The private and the public. There is freedom of thought, a beauty in creating, pride of ownership and often, a pot of silver at the end of the rainbow.  

I work as an independent writer, a book critic, a manuscript editor and a blogger. 
Have something to tell me?

      The best bit about Pingu is, you give it your own words and thoughts. And that leads to creativity. And baby food finishing up soon too. :P

    I was about to comment .. do you have blue eyes?
    but I have a habit of reading the comments on posts as I believe that the comments are like the epilogue to a story.. they take a post forward and lo i found mine with the same question as to do you have blue tinges :P :P

    This picture makes you look two million bucks :P :P

    Strangely enough, bth the times I commented on your blog, i am talking of your picture, but today i must add your writing is extremely addicting.. I've not read too many posts but your nove sized status updates on facebook add to my dose of much needed the right kind of things to read..
    Yeah, I tend t go overboard whle commenting because i love fat thick comments.. I am kinda hoping you're smiling reading this because I am.. okay, i am not always this crazy.. kidding.. as in lying.. i always am like this.
    Much love.
    don't worry i am not going to spam you with a link back to my blog.. i never do that
    I am sure, you must have smiled at this line at least.. every one does.. hey.. now at least..
    if you didn't yet, lie to me and tell you did...

    P.S. i make a lot of typos when i type.. please ignore them and yes, i only leave fat comments n blogs that i love sooo yeahh loviess.
