Being kind.. time to rewind!

Note From the Author

To get my readers up to speed, let’s do a quick recap, (cue recap music, and montage of recent events in the story... lol) this is to figure out who is who and where they are at. SO.. Maliha has entered Kirtana’s life and Kirtana has swept Manu (the tattoed, witty playwright) off his feet but not exactly in the way you would think. Meanwhile Rita and Max (members of Manu’s cast of the play “Who’s got my Knife..”) were last seen fighting over noodles (ridiculous no?). Then there’s the gypsy-ish heart throb angel (who has her moments) Maliha who has now entered the lives of Jagan, two unnamed neighbours of Kirtana and Raghav. Raghav… ah Raghav, he and Mira met on a plane, exchanged words and peanuts, and it looks like life might have taken a surprising turn for the boy who sees more than he knows he does.And then there’s Anish and Karan… pesky men. Karan (old flame)… Anish (for whom Maliha holds a torch...gag). and oh Karan never showed up for dinner that night of the play.. So you can guess Kirtana feels pretty lousy right now.Mira (another tattooed character…maybe too many tattoos in this story) our bald headed Bio engineer… well has a past, and it’s not the best kind.. let’s read and see. Hope you’re all caught up now…Love to the readers.

How this story works..part two

So in a lot of stories there always is a gradual build up from introducing the main characters, establishing the relationships and elaborating on the plot, before it reaches the crux of the story and then finishes. I intend to keep that formula, but add my own flavour to this.. so read, and yes there will be more character introduction chapters, I'll get deeper into the story soon :)

Apart from this, I have decided to keep the names of cities a mystery. I will probably never mention the name of a city specifically, because when you do that, you have to be factually correct, and that might take away from the story on a blog :) so the only things I will ever write about specifically are my characters and what happens to them. The 'where' part will be appropriately described :) and will leave you guessing ;)

Behind this title...

So if you are reading this (thank you!) you are probably wondering what this blog title is about. Why a seemingly normal girl (if you know me or have read my profile) would choose to title her blog so. Well, I can explain it this way. As I see it pretty much everything and everyone around me , and for that matter you, is driven by one of these two sentiments. So no matter what I will ever talk about, it will always come down to something that was done to go after happiness or satisfaction or just not! It is my idea of simplifying the way I think of thoughts (yes think of thoughts), actions, intentions behind anything. And I am one for 'word plays'. So yes I like that my blog can sound like something (a book) we are already familiar with :)

So in this blog I will share with you a story I am writing.. its a story where the characters , events and situations are all derived from my own life. Enjoy :) and I would like your help and suggestions in building this story.. :)

Understand that this story is not true, its just an escape.. and completely a figment of my imagination :)
