Pristine Chaos

September 22, 2025

When the perturbed mind reflects,
chaos gleams pristine
in its own reflection. … More Pristine Chaos

Journaling takes you somewhere—often to an unplanned, unexpectedchance meeting of words and thoughts,carving out stories to feast upon. Sharing a glimpse from my free-write session a few days ago Here is the edited version: My fountain pen is not working properly. Granted, days—no, weeks—no, months of negligence preceded this rebellious nature of my fountain pen. … More Ink Will Flow

Authenticity Over Consistency #FictionMonday

May 13, 2024

Consistency. This word has been haunting me for the past few years consistently. Consistency is regarded as the key in the creative world, whether it’s a writer updating their blog, an Instagrammer marketing their business, or a YouTuber trying to build a following. It is absolutely necessary to be consistent in uploading your work, or … More Authenticity Over Consistency #FictionMonday

Echoes Of My Empty Mind #MundaneMonday

May 6, 2024

For the past two days, I’ve found myself staring at the screen, struggling to write. Why do I persist when it feels like there’s nothing worth writing about? And what would I even do if not this? This is what I dread—the vacant expanse of free time, where my mind becomes a barren wasteland. Numbness … More Echoes Of My Empty Mind #MundaneMonday

Impossible #FictionMonday

March 25, 2024

Impossible – not a much-loved word, but one that is often used to keep mankind in line. However, I am not greatly affected by this word or its constraints. In fact, I am always thrilled when I hear it spoken to me. I am simply too stubborn to play along, preferring to prove the other … More Impossible #FictionMonday

Hiding in the Draft #MundaneMonday

February 12, 2024

It was an accident—stumbling upon my draft folder in Medium. Lucky that I did though, as just last week I had hastily jotted down a piece while I was out, fully intending to publish it later that day. Like most pieces in that particular folder, this one too would’ve been destined to live a life … More Hiding in the Draft #MundaneMonday

The Story Continues #MundaneMonday

February 6, 2024

I tried. All day yesterday, whenever I could sit in front of my laptop, I tried to write. I wrote, too — a couple of stories? prose poems? — I don’t know what to call them. I had a few stunning ideas looming in my head, and I jotted them down. It can’t exactly be … More The Story Continues #MundaneMonday

Of Friendships… #MundaneMonday

January 15, 2024

There are some friendships that I consider a blessing. Yesterday, one such friend visited us. She is one of the first connections I made in Phoenix almost 16 years ago. What I value in our decade-old friendship is that we are never formal with each other, even back when we first met. I often hear … More Of Friendships… #MundaneMonday

Poetry Happens #FictionMonday #ProsePoem

September 18, 2023

Poetry happens when a thought stops by without my permission. Sometimes that thought takes over my mind and becomes a ramble inside my head, and if I gather the courage to sit and write those rambling thoughts, a poem slowly emerges at the tip of my pen. But, not always, I am courageous enough to … More Poetry Happens #FictionMonday #ProsePoem

Some Rambling Musings : This Sky and Some Reflections – 1

July 12, 2023

Once upon a time, I was a brave soul who would jump into daily blogging without any preparation whatsoever. Those were the days when my mind reaped the benefits of blogging by actually writing and publishing without overthinking. I wonder how could I do that! Last week I came across a new feature on Parul’s … More Some Rambling Musings : This Sky and Some Reflections – 1
