hmmm I loved it...I'm seriously surprised...I just found this site and I'm completely fidaa...there's so much good stuff here..

i loved the experimental style of this story...and the just below the surface passion...

hi bj!

honest, nothing forked out so far!!!

absolutely delighted (and partly shocked) to find the piece published. loved all the comments you guys made. look forward to more... even if they are the hatao-ise-yahan-se types...!

and a huge lol for azure`s

neembu, i agree with the self-indulgent muttering bit. only wish the bhang part too, had actually happened...

thanks tahera...

#4 Hey Neembu

What a coincidence! I could not get past the first page either.

I perhaps instinctively dislike writings which are too lazy to use initial caps and whole sentences! Sounds to me like it is

It is...

rather FAKE!

#1 Hey Tahera

How much did this writer promise to fork over for putting in a good word?!

Reading this piece was a chore. I gave up after a page. Writer, there is too much self indulgent, loopy muttering in this piece-it is as if the narrator is caught in some snide, bhang trip-which tends to get tedious and pointless.

oi! why do you girls write these abstract type undecipherable poems and articles? but if someone of TaheraSajids caliber has appreciated your article, then I guess it must be good.

good. must. amit. tahera.

ha.

Hehehe, just kidding. I had a dream a few days ago, a dream of streets lit up with golden lights and lanterns, and with stout brown buildings with flower shops in them. Your article somehow reminded me of that dream. Welcome to chonk daat kaam.

Beautiful. There`s a freshness to your style and a depth in your writing, Seema, that I find very appealing. Complicated, often confusing, aspects of relationships very expertly exposed, indeed!

Hope to read more from you.
