And most importantly, you don’t have to report to any Boss. I couldn’t complain since I was working for another [...]

In two days, I will be off for over a month. Starting with Amsterdam and ending in the islands of Greece for a backpacking trip that I’ve been planned earlier this year but quite honestly haven’t sketched out the internals yet.

Let me sing you a waltz Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts Let me sing you a waltz About this one night stand You were for me that night Everything I always dreamt [...]

It’s funny how things happen at particular times. I’ve been relentlessly spacing my thoughts in different trajectories for quite sometime. They were mostly personal.

After a short stint in Hyderabad with family, I’m off to Chennai, Mumbai and Rajasthan.

I’ve been in locked in my room for the past ten days (almost), except for the last weekend party, to finish up my first short story – “Yuti”. I’m glad that my first draft is ready. Meanwhile, it looks like so many things have changed since the last time I’ve blogged. My current project is [...]
