Yes, about me

There is a profile, a closer look, but I have been told that as a right royal pain in several regions, nooks and crannies, I ought to be a bit more 'professional'. Discussing ketchup is not professional, even though people make huge amounts of money making and selling the thing.

So, as you already know, I write.

I got a book, 'A Journey Interrupted: Being Indian in Pakistan' published and there is a story there, but I shall blog about it someday. You know where to find all there is to know about the book. I have given a link.

There are a couple of projects I am working on - and when I say a couple I mean two exactly. I am taking my time over them because it makes no sense to do anything until your heart beats for it. My heart is a bit slow too.

We are not getting anywhere with this.

Right. I read that I have some over 2000 articles to my credit. Rubbish. It is more like 4000. For a few years I had seven columns at a time and they were not syndicated. This means I wrote on seven different things and thought that the future was a deadline.

Publications have found me inconvenient, and it has often been a mutual feeling.

I blog because I need to say something even if no one is listening. I breathe. Can you listen? No. Yet you know I live. Understand?

Your words matter, though, because even if I think I am an island, I might need to indulge in some intellectual cannibalism.

Join the repast.

There is a intellectual rage within you, the world has no appetite for such sublime emotions as they whet on simplistic notions & primal urges.

"Rage" and "sublime" go together? Thank you! I always knew it...I have nothing against primal urges, though.

PS: Since this page is new, I did not check about comment posting here. This page needs to be updated. Appreciate your words.

Hello!

Remember, this was your farmaaish! Thank you.

If I may suggest slight dilution of the background red.

I am sure there is an artistic reason for it but reds sprinkled on the main page seems fine but one splattered across the background feels gloomy to me.

I am more of a green grass kinda guy :)

FV said...

I've done green & blue. Red is passion, so how does it make you gloomy? Maybe when I have a new layout. For now, ignore the background. Am willing to lend my blinkers :-)

>> Red is passion

Sure and it is also blood and sacrifice. I guess it is eye-of-the-beholder sorta thing.

In any case, content has always been very colorful so ... :)

from the looks of it , I have to say that you LOVE to write and write a lot, never seen a blogger who writes so much with so much alacrity and impatience. Some of your reasoning pertaining to the day to day affairs is great- would love to read all your writing in times to come.

FV said...

Thank you, Rizwan. Indeed, I do LOVE to write, but here must admit that as blogger I also upload my articles. Luckily, there is no conflict of interest!

And, yes, this is the stuff I put up. What I write is, shall we say, a bit more?

Hitesh:

Hello, in all colours of the prism. Planning a change, but cannot decide. This red is just so beguiling for me...I get excited just looking at my own page :)
