Thanks for the friendly invitation, for having a taste of tea when it spreads on you, while spilling from the hands of our friends!!
Thanks, Appy, Leena and Shiba, for giving me such a great opportunity.
I firmly believe that --- Where there’s tea, there’s hope!
Someone said passionately -- Friends are like Tea, we don’t know our own strength until we’re in hot water amidst them!
What would you say is your interesting writing quirk?
I think my writing quirk is a mix of eccentric, eclectic, divergent, unalike, with full of nature's varying expressions, with a really sophisticated feminine silhouette! Whether it is a mythological narrative or a social event, feminism dominates the center of the theme. If I prefer to write a comical story, it will be like a riot of confusion and a multidimensional pattern of human temperaments. My sense of humor is always going to be decidedly quirky.
If you were to publish one of your stories as a novel, which one would that be, and why?
Definitely it will be -- Together We Are Timeless
With passion, dedication and some sort of fulfillment of my dream, I wrote this. It's so special to me because my imagination is at its highest level while writing it. I had to develop a story around a single line -- Radha loves Krishna, for whom she has waited her whole life! It's like tapasya, ( penance) for me defining her love.
I tried to define her in-depth feelings from an inquisitively different angle, in the light of philosophical, psychological, and of course within the mythological ambit. For me, she is strong enough to guide and teach Lord Krishna, to define the Theory of Karma, the Bhagavad Gita.
In many ways, its very special, nearer to my heart... because ....
While participating in this contest, first time Appy met me!! Hmn... here is a point, not me, Appy met me first time! Though sounds strange, there is an interesting story behind that!
What do you like to do when you're not writing?
Many things I normally do ...listen to old songs, read a classic or a political drama, sitting on a window sill swaying my legs casually, in between, loves to look at the blue sky with moving cirrus clouds, in between ,indulges into a dream of running in the paddy fields, talking with trees and flowers (which I usually do frequently in my backyard, guards and my kids know that, now they stopped paying attention) while doing all this, kids play a vital role in their own way!
If you were to insert yourself in the universe of any novel, which one would that be?
I'd love to insert myself in the universe of Louisa May Alcott's Jo March from Little Women, who is smart, impulsive, argumentative, and willing to do anything for her near and dear ones, even cut all of her hair off to raise some cash! And obviously, she's a writer, so that's awesome.
Do you have any suggestions for the writers on IF? If so, what are they?
Keep a writing schedule and be as disciplined as you can about keeping your writing appointments with yourself. This will help ensure a steady stream of story ideas.
I prefer to suggest to all the IF writers that it doesn’t matter if you write realist fiction set in contemporary London or futuristic sci-fi set in a Mars colony. Create believable characters who have credible motivations, flaws, immersive settings and realistic tensions and conflicts and your fiction will feel believable.
Please realize that you are capable of creating and showcasing multiple worlds with your words.
If you are cold, tea will warm you;
if you are too heated, it will cool you;
If you are depressed, it will cheer you;
If you are excited, it will calm you.
Lovely spill the tea. I loved the last four lines. 👏 Thank you for sharing your suggestions for IF writers. I admit I am a bit of a moody (or emotional) writer. 🙈 (not proud of that) I will take your suggestion, and make a writing schedule and stick to it. I also love Bhagwad Gita and Little Women. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. ❤️
I want to ask you, who is your favorite author, and why?
If you have to choose one particular character from all the novels you have read, whose emotions you resonate with the most, who would that be?

I feel like a celebrity already 🤣
Thank you guys for this Honor 🤗
Lovely edits Shiri ❤️ The way you create magic with pictures, you are indeed a visual whiz. Congratz once again! 🤗
If we are allowed to ask questions, here are my questions to both Madhuri and Shiri.
What prompted you to join India Forums?
It was an unintentional entry!
For a while it was a confused journey!
I never expected that I will be here for the coming few years to garner such precious love and affection from many of the IF members.🤗❤️🤗
One of my students was a member of the IF who was watching a thread in my class and discussing something animatedly there, I questioned her what's the matter ? She has shown me the thread she is following, with inquisitiveness I've peeped into it. I asked her the procedure, she explained it. That's my first step in to the India Forums. I was grabbed by the Balika Vadhu forum members immediately, who were later congregated in the Somewhere Over The Rainbow CC, they owned me since then.
What is your favourite food item?
Gulabjamun with Ice cream😃Who cares about calories if these two are in front of us??!!
Who is your favourite writer? Other than FF writers.
Alice O'Connor, known by her pen name as Ayn Rand, an extraordinary writer and philosopher. She is known for her fiction and for developing a philosophical system, she named it Objectivism. She explained her objectivism as a system of philosophy, has four main principles---- objective reality, absolute reason, individualism, and laissez-faire capitalism. Her famous work Atlas Shrugged, from that I love this line --- A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.
Cheers.....
Thank you, Havana. Love you dear. 🤗❤️🤗

I also have some sweet relationships with my teachers.
Are you in touch with that student on IF?
Cheers.......
Normally teachers have three loves, love of learning, love of learners, and the love of bringing the first two loves together! Teaching is about people but framed through ideas. It’s about content, hearts, minds, the past, the future–whatever we can imagine, teaching and learning are both causes and effects.Originally posted by: Savera84

That's why every student has a sweet relationship with their teachers.⭐️
Are you in touch with that student on IF?
Yes... she is Dr Avyakta, my ex student and my cousin's wife at present. 😃
She is 2 years senior in the India forums.
I love calories. They are damn tasty.😆 In summer mornings I love to have 2/3 gulabjamuns wrapped in a few scoops of vanilla ice cream!
For you ...
