It is said that speech as a form of communication is about 50,000
years old and writing, about 10,000 years. But thinking is
probably as old as mankind.
We often hear that talent is inborn. I have
seen people with such inborn talents. However, I belong to
that school of thought, where we can achieve what we want,
with dedication and practice. I wasn’t born with any
special talent or flair for writing. But I discovered writing
as a means of self-expression, and putting ‘thoughts’
into ‘words’ gives me immense self-satisfaction.
My writings - Simple is difficult
My writings - Novels
The novel True Love is a fiction but was
inspired by a real incident and was conceptualized to suit
the medium of expression. It took me a few years to complete
the novel [24 chapters and about 350 pages] despite a self-imposed target of atleast an hour before the PC everyday. My obsession
with True Love, knew no limits, as I ended up writing anywhere,
whenever I was free which included taxis, flights, trains,
hotel rooms and lobbies and airports. I am glad to have received
wide spread acclaim from the readers of manuscript, which
according to many has potential for other commercial applications,
other than just publishing. I hope their wishes come
true.
Voyage
of Discovery, is a major novel and just completed. It is a story of a woman in search of solitude and deals with complex issues in the background of various religious philosophies. The tag line, “Four religions, three nations, two people and one belief” symbolizes the theme of the novel.
Apart from these two novels, my major writings have been articles on Leadership, Management, Marketing, HR and current affairs, published in Deccan Herald. These articles are available on this site. Also a collection of these articles ‘Simple is difficult’ is being brought out shortly.
Apart from these, I have also dabbled in poetry and travelogue, the samples of which are available in this site including a song, 'Namma
Preeti'. Please click the respective links and wish you a happy experience.
