Just some thoughts

I've been staring at my screen for a while now, and not writing anything. It's not a good feeling, lol. For some reason, my brain has decided that my writing time is once the sun has set. While I don't mind that, I miss being able to write whenever I can. I am continuing with… Continue reading Just some thoughts

Hey all, long time no see!!

I know, I'm as shocked as you are that I am finally here, and writing something? Other than a mail? Or a fic? Wow!! Go me!! I've had a very difficult few months. I burnt out so fast in March and picked myself up by writing fanfics. If you've watched The Untamed or read Mo… Continue reading Hey all, long time no see!!

Lead up to Onam

Onam has not been fun for me for almost 20 years. Every year, this festival that I once looked forward to and loved, has turned into a social obligation that I had to power through. It has been triggering too many traumas, and no wonder, that this week has been more unsettling than ever. I… Continue reading Lead up to Onam

Two weeks post retirement

These two weeks have been nothing less than amazing. I have stopped my anti depressants. It is not that I am okay, but without the stress of my job, I find I am able to manage much better. Grief isn't something that leaves in a day, and even if there are days when I just… Continue reading Two weeks post retirement

The travails of lockdowns

I know it is necessary here, with how the Covid cases rising everyday and deaths too, but I'd forgotten how inconvenient a full lockdown was. One good thing is banks don't have to work every day. Three days a week with 50% staff and timings up to 2, so I had to go only one… Continue reading The travails of lockdowns

Weekend Plans

I haven't got a synopsis for RevPit yet, but there's still time? I've got my submission document ready for now. I'm also behind in my camp nano goals, so plans for the weekend is to catch up and maybe build up a buffer. Even though I'm behind on my goals, writing is still happening, and… Continue reading Weekend Plans

March is here

March is here, and so is summer. I keep plugging away at words, hoping that I might actually get somewhere with all this. I haven't finished Wizard's Debt yet, but hopefully I'll get to do it this month. March 4th was my son's birthday. He would have turned 18 if he had lived. It is… Continue reading March is here

Still in February?

Why are we still in February? lol. I feel like time isn't passing at all. Flame of a Dragon's Oath and Soul of Magic are with betas and it looks as if Soul of Magic might need a full rewrite. Ah well, time enough for that in the future, I guess. Memories of Forgotten Waves… Continue reading Still in February?

One week or so later

I am rather glad I started anti depressants, because my state of mind is much better. Not everything is hunky dory, of course, but there is hope now. I have increased the number of my WIPs to 48, and I think I'll stop there. It's a nice even number, just shy of fifty, and I'm… Continue reading One week or so later

Something new?

This week has been different. I started anti depressants, and already I can feel the change. There is a bit of sleepiness, vagueness, inability to focus, and some slight physical issues as well, but for the first time in so long, life doesn't seem like an endless well of despair. I posted the final chapter… Continue reading Something new?
