Blessed to write

I spent some time tonight going through blogs and thinking about stuff...I've spent a few years locking myself away and have grieved only one thing the most..the loss of my words...a comment on another blog left me grateful and humbled...when the mind finds a way to read, to write, to paint to dance to sing, it's a gift that ought not to be taken lightly. I spent a joyous half hour with my daughter tonight ostensibly helping her write a speech...what it helped was to free me from self-imposed cages of the mind. It's a hard habit to break when one pretends one does not need to write. especially when it is the one thing one cherishes the most...so I shall see how long my gratefulness and humility last...how long I can put pen to paper and try to write...not to publish nor be read but for windows to the soul and for the soul...a voice that begs to be heard apart from the recesses of one's brain....so write I shall till I can...for it makes me whole again...

Hi Hema..i am mom of two girls looking for good books to read to my daughters, and that's how landed in your blog and ammatales.
Been completely intrigued by your thought on books for kids, but unfortunately all the links in your blog's and ammastales.com or book - are not accessible. Can you helps me? how to get access?

Hi Saradha,

Appreciate the comments. My books are currently available through private retailers like Funky Rainbow in Bangalore and some independent bookstores. We used to have small shipments sent to the bay area but haven't had requests lately and have stopped. The easiest way would be to get someone in India to pick up a copy for you or to order it from us in India. We don't do small international shipments.
Keep reading! Cheers!
