How it all began- My journey as a FF writer - Page 2

I know Munee. you were the trigger point although there were others like Saima, Rima and JC who were goading me to try. After your PM, I sent that first part to JC to seek her opinion. In fact I had written that part way back in June 2008 but did not have the guts to start the fic. It was a pleasure journey indeed with constant encoruagement from people like you but I do not think I want to embark on another one just yet.

Talk about slack at work Opti I tell you it's hell for me with my printer at my head for books and all i can think is of future story lines it's just awful.... like you I'm extremely passionate about writing and that effects my work..... reason I'm wrapping up my ffs super fast.

Then you and Opti should start working really hard now😆

even I have problems at school not for writing FFs though😆

Munee i tried writing a bit for the group FF so do you want to proof read it when I finish it off

I always wondered why Optimist doesn't write FFs before you started this one. I remember reading several parts of your FF at once after my vacation last Nov/Dec. The flow was so good that I didn't need to take breaks in between. The best thing about your writing was those little details (which gave the FF a reality touch) you gave- like tincture, Crocin tablets, Michi's finance work sheets, the chawl Mini India, festivals, characters like Mala, Venkat, Manju etc. Last but not the least- Michi triplets were the highlight of your FF. The story was predictable, but that didn't make it uninteresting at all. Because you wrote it so well, with your command on the language and with your attention to details.

Thank you so much Opti Akka for this FF. It's was such a pleasure to read. And special thanks to giving us your time that too with quick updates.

P.S. Your Ayesha- Loved her so much. If I have to choose my favorite character from your FF, I will have a dilemma between her and Milind.

Woah, what a post, thanks for sharing how Destiny Children's came to be conceptualised and your thoughts and apprehensions on starting an FF. Opti, I hope u will write some one shot Michi FF's before the show wraps up.

Oh yes, must thank JC for encouraging you and that way "destiny's children" happened.

I share the same feeling. I hated it when I gave a couple of hours everyday to write updates for FFs and not reading the research articles I used to print everyday. I had to forcefully stop myself from writing and I have decided not to watch any soap after this and it does look like I will live up to my resolution as I feel disgusted with KYM now.

thanx for sharing this post with us, its nice to know how u began ur FF journey...your posts have always been intriguing and written really well and when i saw that u intended to write a FF i knew it was going to be brilliant. thanx for writing this FF for us opti, u gave us a michi chawl track, a hot headed milsi and triplets...it was a treat reading michi's journey and it reminded me of the initial michi marriage days in the serial...Thank You!!!
