' as fun, quite! the break must be some good, after all!!! why have i not see more writing around???

cheers,

NJ! But writing it was so much fun! I remembered you when I wrote that part. I do know that you are phan and haven't I told you, I am NOT? :D So, there you go. Dr. Seuss - is a brilliant man. Thing 1 and Thing 2 are his, of course. Hmm...I should have put in a disclaimer, no?
Err...I have written only you haven't got then time to get around there :-)

Hey Sri,
You should have given it a shot, nonetheless. this is very much on Grimm level and I had the same characteristics in mind when I wrote this.
Thanks for liking it.

Kiran! As usual, anything that pertains to you, you are fashionably late there. But you are here nonetheless so no matter, no matter. :-) Glad you liked. Yes, this is very much like Grimm and this is actually based on A-R characterizations in Grimm. :-)

Neverwhere.. hahahaha....you only have the punk to make the characters sound so differently different :D. Enjoyed reading every bit of it. Grimm all the way, right?


Yeah, I am back to writing.
:-) Yep, Grimm all the way. Humor with A and R has somehow become associated to Grimm. Could not think of anything else!

Sookie.

Wind struck memoir....I can so see it in front of me. Amazingly written slow and beautiful tale it was. You took me back to those times when I visited the tomb. All I can say now is Loved It.

Hi Sri,

Thank you for your comment and liking this story.

This one completely transported me into another world, the funny thing is...i dont even know what NJ requested! :D and i dont think that matters now, cuz watever you wrote was SO beautiful, in both the terms of writing and story, that i couldnt pull away! I think this has been one of the few times i could see everything happening in front of me...Um reading A Suitable Boy nowadays, it reminded me of that in someway...God knows why...but it did! :D This has to been, hands down, one of your most, what i can call, emotional piece of writing which was damn frikking beautiful. I loved it. :)



Yeah, I feel good to write too. And thank you very much for liking it. :-) Yeah...emotional piece. I think this is the only one which is as emotional as this. The narration is quite lengthy and I wanted it that way because I am talking about a place here and not many people know about it. But I had to introduce some meta physical elements to make it feel more real. Kind of blending history and metaphysics to achieve romance. (That sounded pretty cool in my head but as I typed, it did not make much sense :S)

Does beautiful do justice?

This was mesmerizing. After Death Talkies..you should start another series with a happier note...it transported me back to this village in India..walking its lanes...and by the banyan tree..next to the river...

you wont believe what just happened...but i wont freak you out here...i'm still amazed..with it..

but it was really beautiful..i don't know if these things really do happen in real life or not..but it sure was good reading about it..

I just have one qs...how did you think of this?

A



Aww Aria...Thank you!
Err...lets not get carried away. This is most definitely a one time thing :D
I have sober or cynical or downright morbid writing. This one was, lets say an anomaly?
This village/town is very much real and so are the places mentioned.

And you got to tell me what happened now...or on a scale of 1 to 10 of creepiness, where does it lie?

No, I don't believe these things happen in real life. But I had good time writing it.

And how I came to this - I was watching a korean horror movie and I got this idea by seeing a couple in the movie sitting next to river and eating noodles. Don't ask me how they are related, but that's the truth :-)

When the words come true
I walked into the lounge silently, it was definately peaceful. I could see a bunch of people bent over their piece of paper and some reading books from famous authors. I dropped my bag on the table and sat down. I took out my paper and held my pen in my hand. I waited for ideas but did'nt get any. So i closed my eyes and inhaled. I snapped open my eyes and began writing whatever came to my mind.
" i was closing my eyes when i hear the door open. "
Cheesy, but i did hear it open! Eh, whatever.
" the wind blows and a sweet fragnance fills the room"
I close my eyes and smell it. It was so beautiful.
" The wind tickles my nape and blows my hair. "
I pick up my bag to find a hairband and tie up my hair. Better!
" i hear someone pulling a chair and it creaks.."
I turn to look at that person, i can see his back and i think it was his hair which smelled good.
" i turn my thoughts back to what i was doing, oh yeah writing an essay about drug abuse but too bad i was in a library where i kept getting distracted"
I turn to look at him again, having no reason to do it. He turns around but thankfully, i turn away a bit too soon.
" what was that? anyway, i illustrate about how it was harming teenagers, when..i can feel someone really close to me"
I turn around to face a pair of ocean blue eyes staring down at me. I must be looking really vulnerable to him, because i feel really awkward.
" the guy smiles at me, when i realize he's the same guy who's been disturbing me all along.."
'i saw u looking at me' he says questiongly.
" I gulp. So he had seen that, but i wonder how? He was facing the other side all the time..."
'eh no, why would i do that?' i ask him in a tone which was supposed to be obvious.
" he just looks at me intrested and has this crooked smile. It looked so cute on him"
' never mind' he says.
" I breathe a sigh of relief, hoping he'll go but what he does next surprises me"
He pulls the paper from front of me and i stare back at him. I was sort of embarassed too because i had written all nonsense there which i did'nt want him to read.
" ' can i get the paper back?' i ask him"
He does'nt give it to me. Woah, woah, woah! How can everything happen? It seems like such a dream. I pinch myself awkwardly. Eh eh, filmy i know.
" He tries to hide his smile, too bad i notice it. I pout in a cute manner."
'thats not gonna work' he teases. I put on a straight face.
" He reads through the whole thing, while i cover my face. I had written nonsense, not really related to the topic"
I cover my face and close my eyes. He chuckles, to which i open them. He smiles down at me while i have an embarassed look.
" 'its good' he says."
'Eh, thanks..' i say awkwardly.
" ' do u mind if i take it?' he asks"
'Sure, but i might need it back' i say.
" 'we'll have to meet again for that..' he winks"
I smile inwardly, and accept his proposal. He walks out while i stare at his retreating figure.
....
okay, that was it. It is really confusing i know. The " " part is what she writes for the book, but the irony is that it actually happens to her!
The setting for the character is a library and an essay but for her its a lounge and a book.
this is written for ammygurl aka ananya..i hope i stuck to the theme, n the couple is AR though i did'nt mention the names. I was imagining them all along, n i hope u do too.
It was'nt a dream, but a major coincidence.
hope u like it :)..do leave ur comments..

@ Sookie:

This comment is for NJ's request. This is definetly one of my favourite amongst the few that I have had a chance of reading from you. Most of what I have read of your work have been the one shots on AR and this is a complete contrast from those in terms of writing and flow. Most of those have always seemed to have had a bit of a cynical edge to it, with a sort of gothic touch to it. I don't know if that makes any sense, but it sort of reminded me of this book I read a while ago 'shadow of the wind', not the concept or writing as such. Just one of those things I drew parallel with your writing. I think I should write about this one, I seem to digress a bit too much, so coming to this one. It was one of those writing, that you know its very unlikely to happen, though you wish it would have happened in reality.

It was absolutely beautiful, the main protagonist was a lot more emotional than all your other characters. This is one of your work which was easy for me to visualise and it actually did transport me back to an unknown village. I say easy to visualise, because I was just going through a photo album of a mate of mine, who has just been on a recent exploration. I wish it had been me instead..oh well.

I don't know if you've read William Dalrymple's work, but for some reason the dairy entry really reminded me of some of his work. I think that may be due to the fact that most his work is about travels to India and the Mughal empire. But seriously this is my absolute favourite for now, may be till I manage to read other work from you or who knows this might remain as my favourite.

Thanks to NJ for requesting and to you Sookie for writing this.

Huma
