ASYA OS: Plan Isse Kehte Hain - Page 9

Mochhug, I'm sure your readers don't hate you; I'm pretty sure they miss you. And yeah, if you're not comfortable using your personal experience and history you shouldn't. I'm sorry to hear that you've been through some deep stuff. I hope you continue to find strength and kickass role models all your life. I hope all of us do. 

As you write don't be your own worst critic. Just be you. You'll be overwhelmed by the support you'll find from unexpected quarters. And your writing doesn't have to be the only way to uplift yourself. If reading does it for you, go for that. I think good fiction can really reach in deep inside of us and shake some things loose. And of course if you want feedback I'm here. 

Have you tried journaling? I'm not good about it. But you know my first Asya OS came out of journaling. But you don't just have to talk to yourself about shows or books. It could be anything. And that book you have in your head. Just write. Don't worry about publishing it yet. Just think about expressing - writer for yourself as the audience. May be no one will ever read it. And that's OK. Take care of yourself. Lots of love.

 

You know, writing my FF introduced me to Rumi, Neruda, boxing 😉, Taekwondo; it re-introduced me to Jhansi ki Rani, Star Wars, superwomen around the world. 

Here's some Rumi to light you up.

Hi Klondy!

I finally... finally got the time to really sit for it and read your story. And omg it. was. beautiful. Sooo very intense and smart too!  Perfectly written. Only in the last part you reveal that this story plays out after the scene where Asad barges into the Siddiqui Mansion to take his Zoya back home. Only here she refuses to come with him. There is a scenario I never thought about! It would have completely broken him. He would have been devastated for sure. But personally I dont believe he would have stooped this low and actively taken advantage of her like that. But then he again he was always extreemly harsh and strict to her. Only when he is about to really lose her, thst when he realises he can't live without her. Still I feel he is not that kind of person to do all that to the woman he loves. My heart is not ready to believe that haha.

You already know how I feel about your talent. I am familiar with your writing from your megaFF in Asya. Still this story amazed me again. You really made me believe all the emotions of the characters (even Asad). Tbh I got a bit teary (which very rarely happens) when Zoya was crying at Ayaan and Humaira's engagement. Thats so Zoya. Keeping her grief to herself and even convincing herself she deserves it. Sigh..

Anyways I absolutely adored this story. It really shows how much you love Asya. Just like how writing is you therapy, reading your stories on them.. is my therapy. Especially your FF. Thats how everything should have happened. I hope to read more from you soon!

Thank you so much for the pm's

Love!

xoxo

noesha, I love you! Thank you for saying that Asad would never do this. Yes, yes, yes. And I think I'm finally able to understand that too. This story has haunted me since that time the show introduced this track. And I'm certain that the original story meant to do this - at least that's how I interpreted their first synopsis which they later took down. 

But to hear you say that he would never be so cruel makes me feel just perfect. You're right. He wouldn't. At least not the Asad of my imagination. I think that's also why I resisted so long to get this story out - how could I bear to do this to Asad? 

So yes, may be this was a way to get back to my FF. I'm feeling stuck there and needed an outlet to vent my dark Asya visions. But no, neither of them could do this to each other; they'd die first. I grappled with this demon briefly in the climax of the FF. I made both of them suffer for it. But they wouldn't let me do it to them. Not for too long at least. And they made me write that make up chapter! I swear.

Then they also forced me to revisit Mangalpur!
