Here's how I plan to beat my laziness
For the past three days, Friday included, I have been making excuses. I’m tired. There’s no time left to do anything today. I should start off with fresh resolve in the new week, starting Monday. I had posted my last blog post on Thursday, which also, was my

Why places matter in a story
So my sister left yesterday. It was raining as I stood there in the midst of in the middle of blaring car horns, and dark skies. It rained later that day. This was Thursday. Today is Friday. It rained today as well. I’m not sure any of that detail

How I felt when my Jawbone broke
I had bought a Jawbone UP, back in November. Since then, the tracker was on my wrist 24×7 for most of the days. This Wednesday, after roughly six months of careful usage, the straps broke. The device came with a one year warranty, but apparently the warranty did not

Why standing still is scary
There is this weird state that I am in, right now. I think, I have overdone, overstayed my welcome rest, respite, from writing, and everything else. I had managed to finish the first draft, a couple of weeks back. I wrote about it. It was after all an event quite

How it feels to finally finish that first draft
If you asked me to describe the week that went by in a single word, I would say, ‘awesome’. But then, I use that word a little more often than oft needed. So, there’s that. But the week that went by, was pure joy for me, or rather, more

Some numbers
I had thought of exactly three different ways to start this post, before ditching them all to go with this one, which now that I look back at it, is kind of not so awesome. In the last post, I talked of goals, about how they might have a possible
