The book is nigh. Dork cometh. Full updates.
Regards,
Girish
Waiting in anticipation.... your blog is watched by me more regularly than cricinfo nowadays...
I wish, I could the same thing some time. I dont know if it could be possible or not but yes you are greaat buddy.
All I can promise is that I will try to buy an original, not pirated version of your book. And that will depend on the books pricing...so be reasonable!
PJ aside, best wishes to you!
completely true. Even I (for all the mediocrity I possess) got such an idea after reading about your decision!
some human instinct, this one. But since a little bit of head is in place, I didn't pull the plug :).
Hats off! (did want to say this in the other post, but the comments were already beyond count and that somehow stopped me)..
all the very best...hope to get ur autographed book soon !!!
One - For having the guts to follow your dreams leaving an otherwise so-called "secure, fixed sal" kinda job.
Two - for something that I repent not having done myself - follow my dreams.
Admirer of your blogs I always was. Count me as an admirer of you as a person as well.
Regards,
Radha.
godspeed.

havent been here a while, but if your going to write, you sure are going to make not only bread but also butter!
good luck!
cheers!
r
way to go, dude. during times when all i can think of is quitting a job that pays well and start doing something that gives me some sense of purpose or achievement, i see guys like you who actually do it... hats off to u...
In addition to the amazing entertainment that your blog provides, you're now making all these pseud self help books redundant by being a living breathing example of following your dreams.
Congratulations, best wishes, and may all the forces be with you.
I think, when you suspect you are too damn good at something,and when you arent really doing much about it,letting it lie dormant inside you, it is only a matter of time before it begins stirring to life and making a godawful noise to come out. If not now,later, it will get so loud, it becomes bum-f***ing painful ignoring it.(it already did for you) How can you regret something that you just had to do anyway?
You be sure you are going to come across a million snags and blocks you wished you had anticipated, but really, there is only so much of homework you can do,so many of these become evident only after you take the plunge, you being no babe inthe wood types, am sure have done as good a job as anyone can.(yeah yeah..)
There is a also a chance (miniscule) that you find you arent as great a writer you thought you'd be (we all think otherwise :)). but really, when you took the decision, you knew you JUST HAD TO knock, a response, at that point was relatively inconsequential.(no, really..)
I think bouts of doubt at this point is only natural, but then if you put yourself into that frame of mind when you took the decision you'll know AT THAT POINT IN TIME, you couldnt really have done it any other way, given those premises you had at hand then, you did the only thing you could.
boy,(and cant resist the customary apology rider to all sermonising spiels), but am I sounding full of (sh)it?
Just trying to extend my bit of comfort and enc. here..
met you, Boka and Paro at Chaos two days back!! I'm the one who JAMmed with Boka...alas he got through to the finals!
Couldn't catch up with you after that.
And I forgot to tell you then ,all the best!!!
was talking to ur fren vijay.. discussing ur guts..
I had temporarily left blogging but after hearing ur decision I started blogging anything but atleast blogging..
So even if is a calculated risk, it takes guts which must be appreciated. I hope that you are successful and form a support group of all similar people(especially writers and poets) so that other people are inspired to chart their own course.
Best of luck.
You can't keep a good man(read writer) down for long, just remember that!
All the very best ! waiting to hear all about you in the press soon !
:)
Cheers,
Nishit
All the best!
That's all I can say, being an idiot whose followed societal choices all his life.
