Hey Alex (you still haven't told me if I should continue calling you that or not?)

feel free to call me alex although i must say i'm a laydiee 😳

Thank you for your very kind, and absolutely flattering set of comments on my various threads in the span of less than a day... its always to find a reader who ca read between the lines and analyze a writer's head.

As for the latter part of the comment - between this, and something you said on the other thread about the episode, I figure you're not the utter romantic person 😆

i am , i am , well atleast in my mind...

And hey, You have me at least a good solid half vote on that account! In my own life, I the most insipid stiff kind of expressionless person - ever! 🥱 But let's say I've been reading from the age of 4... and it something that hasn't stopped, and when I read or write, the latent (or as I like to believe mostly non-existent) romantic element tends to surface and show up. Not that I still don't hear truck loads on how cynical even my romantic writing can be, lol, but still - I can be a very appreciating reader of fine old school romance when it comes to that, and I suppose that tends to show in the writing too.

i think i'm very romanchakchakchak in my mind and i'm geeky too...i used to read my textbooks and encyclopaedias and other miscellany round the house when i'd run out of storybooks...poor me 😭 ...hehe 😉...my parents took pity on me after i'd started the phonebook😛...

since i devour romance novels by the truckload, that bit we r talking bout reminded me of jane eyre and various mills and boon (which btw i only read for the plots (hahaha,yeah right))... i think its because i expected more...its a compliment really😊

Please don't ever feel obliged to hold back on any criticism you have to offer - because truly, its the only way I can ever evolve in my work - and I shall never dream of ignoring genuine criticism! 😳 So there!

ps: I have a hunch you may like to read this although I've lost thread for a while now and haven't gotten back to it with the resolve I started it with, but so far I think its the kind of stuff you may enjoy more (not to promote my thread, but from what you sound like!) Take your time though, and don't feel pressed to read it at all, if its not your thing - I understand entirely!

will read shakespeare in love asap...but since i'm short on leisure at the moment i dont know when...preferably on a lazy afternoon when i have oodles of time...it deserves no less

Shall see more of you around?! (:

try and keep me away!

xx

Sorry for the interruption, but seriously? Discussions on fb can get howlarious! 😆

@ abhi 911

i dont know if howlarious is the word... its something all right... after timidly venturing onto facebook , i was expecting some "he's so qweet/she makes me go all goo goo/leave navya and marry me" posts but

-taking attendance ?!! that too 2-3 times a day? apparently the kiddos are on vacation but want to show how anarchic they are by giving attendance religiously on fb...

-pairing up EVERY unnattached passerby?! renuka/mohan...harry/appi...shagun/banaras tailor or shagun/ramu or shagun/lucifer... ok ok i admit i got caught up in it as well and suggested baba/navyas daadi ...buadadi /some scary looking bearded man from pratigya...the rikshawalla/anants housemaid etc etc...wat is this adolescent need to pair everyone up

! someone singing muskura DOOONAAA every 5 minutes...that song grates on my last nerve anyway...and bekabu bu bu bu booo...i'll put bekaboo-boos on them babies

finally , when the discussion centred on the great need to see navya ...wait for it...wearing a sari, i legged it out of there...

i'm sure u have had gr8 convos on fb but mebbe i've been just plain unlucky...

ok... it was a little howlarious😃

btw- i enjoy ur posts and interrupt away anytime
