We returned a few hours ago from Kolkata. Mumbai welcomed us back with a glimpse of the still-fresh-faced Juhi Chawla at the airport (reel-life star-gazing) and still-endless-traffic jams all the way to Borivili (real-life tyre-gazing).

I wrote professionally from the age of 15 (no higher education for a girl said my father) and I still do some for money, at an advanced age.
Mostly though these days it is for all of the (unpaid)above.
It'especially exciting when someone reads what you write and are in turn stimulated, entertained and ... and ... and ...
Welcome back from your holiday.
