I saw Kiran Desai walking through the street and I was surprised. I narrowed my eyes and stared to make sure it was her. It was her alright, but she looked like she could be my sister. She looks young, playful, tall, thin and very beautiful. It was surprising. It made me think I could go home and just write a book. She can.

The fact that this account is attached to the gmail acount I don't use often has become a huge barrier to entry for me. Small things thwart my work. I need to focus on keeping the environment in order, my working environment, and then the work just comes.

I seriously want to be a writer now. I think I am expressive, I understand life and activities through writing, its a way I become conscious. What I need now is a story.
