I received some wonderful news today — I have been accepted into a writers’ residency, where I intend to work on my novel, Constellation of Scars.
I recently linked to Ghoti Magazine’s publication of the first chapter, and since then I’ve wanted to post up more.
This is especially for Syar, who wrote to say that reading that excerpt was “like tasting mango ice-cream for the first time”. Thank you. :)
The first two chapters are up on a separate page, which you can see at the top of the blog.
Ooh. Cool beans. Me go download now and read when I get home. (Darn me having to work for a living. Bah.)
Thanks for the teaser, dear! :D
Niiccceeee. Onwards & Upwards…
Oh man, I honestly wished I wrote something better right after I typed that but I was so caught up in gushing I couldn’t think of a better analogy! Congratulations again on the fellowship. And yay for the second chapter!
Congratulations and all the very best Sharanya!
Right from the first few lines, your writing reminds me of Gabriel Garcia Marquez :)
Kenny — You’re very welcome. :)
Syar — But I thought that was a perfect analogy, and the highest of compliments. :)
Yuva & Vinod — Thanks!
Miapan — What a compliment! Thank you!
