It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you…. sorry. Let’s not make it a professional disappointment letter. But truth be told my heart is heavy today. As heavy as it has been in a decade. And that is saying something, is it not? I realize I might have said a lotContinue reading “Dear Neel #11”

Dear Neel #10
It’s been longer than I intended it to be and I am sorry about that. But again, considering my last sentence again, I feel like I have nothing to be sorry about, it was just that life took its toll again and I just couldn’t deal with words anymore. However, I am sorry that IContinue reading “Dear Neel #10”
Dear Neel #8
Dear Neel #8 It has been good to be writing again. Yes, can you believe that I have started writing again, some poetry, one short story, and one draft of an entire novel? I don’t know what to call it, because it is nothing but a gist of ideas, but somehow I am inching towardsContinue reading “Dear Neel #8”
Dear Neel #7
I am finally out of my reading slump. I am reading sweet books. Happy books. Yes. I am better health wise. I am taking things slow, not pushing myself to my extremes, and I am, for the first time trying not to care much about every single thing that I cannot control. Not that IContinue reading “Dear Neel #7”
Dear Neel #6
Dear Neel I can’t believe this is just the sixth letter I am writing to you. It feels like I have been writing you for ages, telling you undeserved stories and keeping you up to date with my goings on. Not that I hate any of it, but I thought it had to be theContinue reading “Dear Neel #6”
Dear Neel #5
Dearest Neel, I almost forgot to write you a letter this month. Almost. Because see I made it a point to write before the month ends, before the year ends, before 2021 bids adieu, before the two’s welcome us. I have long given up on writing to you on the 15th of every month, IContinue reading “Dear Neel #5”
Dear Neel #4
It took me two months to get back to you. You, on the other hand, seem not to care. What carelessness you portray? What deceptiveness? And I try to perceive- reality, time. Obviously, I fail. It had never been my intention to stop writing to you, to ghost you for a whole of sixty-five days.Continue reading “Dear Neel #4”
Dear Neel #3
Dear Neel #3 Dearest Neel, what kind of a year is this? Didn’t it simply sail through? Can you believe it is already September which is flying by us while I laze around writing letters to you? Nine months of a year gone by and what have I done? Half the year I have eitherContinue reading “Dear Neel #3”
Dear Neel #2
Dear Neel #2 Did you get my letter? Did you read it? Did you think about me as you saw my handwriting? Did you miss me? The last time I wrote to you was when I had a writer’s block or when I thought I had a writer’s block. That was the day when IContinue reading “Dear Neel #2”
Tête-à-tête: The Tumultuous Lives and Loves of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre by Hazel Rowley
“So much the better—this was death. It was nothing; it was to cease to breathe. It was happiness, it was perfect happiness. They had now what they had always wanted to have, the union which had been impossible while they lived. Unconscious whether he thought the words or spoke them aloud, he said, “No twoContinue reading “Tête-à-tête: The Tumultuous Lives and Loves of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre by Hazel Rowley”
