July 10, 2015. July 31, 2015. It was a brick house with an overgrown garden that attracted my attention. The central arch had two pillars on either side, which had vines wrapped around them, winding their way up to the parapet of the terrace. On either side, bushes had grown as tall as trees, and prevented the sunlight from entering. Outside and inside were therefore totally different worlds. One was wilderness, the other was a dungeon. Would she be anything like I had imagined? Is that really you? Uhmmm...

July 13, 2015. July 25, 2015. The years had had more than their share of effect on her. It had been nearly a decade since I had seen her. The iron clad will was replaced with furrows drawn by time. The coldness of the eyes had a flicker of regret. And then I realized. Sunny short for Sunaina. Oh how she had loved being very ‘English’. I cursed myself for not having made the connection. But it had been a lot of years. I was not sure if I was ready to face her. Her frail voice resonated with her fragile ol...

Amir lay idly on the bed, trying to touch the top of the mosquito net with his toes. He had been lying awake for some time now, between Mother on one side and Father on the other, who were both sleeping. It was still five a.m, and everyone in the house would soon be getting….

July 28, 2015. July 29, 2015. Hey, you’re up early today . Mother had opened her eyes, and she pulled him towards her and gave him a kiss on his cheek. I’m praying. God please make Shiva fall sick today. Bad boy. What if he’s praying for the same for you? Would you like that? Mother laughed. God only grants good wishes, not bad ones like yours. Come now, time to get ready. Amir got up and got out of the net, stood on the floor, and walked out of the room, secretly hoping that this time, God understood.

How do you like to write? | next100words
https://next100words.wordpress.com/2015/08/04/how-do-you-like-to-write
How do you like to write? August 4, 2015. When I’m in that zone, I write before I think. It’s like I’m in a dark room, with a flashlight, and as I point my flashlight in one direction, I can make out some things. Who is this person? What is he or she wearing? What is the setting? What are the emotions the character is going through? Is there a sound in the background? Is there a fragrance or smell? How do you prefer to write? If yes, what is it? Share with us in the comments!

How do you like to write? Writing is something I’ve wrestled with all my life. Contrary to what I’ve heard about so many writers, writing does not come easy to me. Sometimes I’m too conscious of what I’m writing, which ruins the flow and makes me edit so much that I’m barely able to make progress. Sometimes, I try to think…. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Steven Porter, Billionaire. July 21, 2015. August 4, 2015. Steven Porter slumped on the sofa in his living room. He looked out through the glass wall in front of him at the lights of the city. From his 112. He decided he should call Anne. He looked at his watch. 6:00 pm. It would be 1:00 am in Barcelona. Would she be angry? He didn’t know who else to share it with. He picked up the phone and dialled. Hey, hi, what’s up? Mainland Corp just reached a billion-dollar valuation on the Street. 8:00 PM it had b...
