'The Great Stories are the ones you have heard and want to hear again. The ones you can enter anywhere and inhabit comfortably.
They don't deceive you with thrills and trick endings.
They don't surprise you with the unforeseen.
They are as familiar as the house you live in. Or the smell of your lover's skin.
You know how they end, yet you listen as though you don't. In the way that although you know that one day you will die, you live as though you won't.
In the Great Stories you know who lives, who dies, who finds love, who doesn't. And yet you want to know again.'

-The God of Small Things.


To me writing is not a responsibility. Nor is it a habit.
Writing is more than just a hobby. Writing is a solace.
It is a gateway into wonderland.
To me writing is suppressed thoughts and restrained words.
Writing is anger and sadness. It is also excitement and happiness.
Writing is an addictive insanity.
