But this is my blog, my buddy, my own little corner where I can put anything I want. A novel is just so, so BIG. It's quite overwhelming. And hey, about writing about the city, might I suggest, just talk about how it makes you feel inside. People are sometimes reluctant to talk about how special places are since they are just 'inanimate spaces'. But that's not true, we form attachments and relationships with our personal spaces and in some ways, those are even stronger than the ones we form with people. Just bring out what's on your mind, onto paper. @Sharanya: :-) Thank you, that’s very heartening. But this is my blog, my buddy, my own little corner where I can put anything I want.

And you're scared about writing? I envy ANYONE who can write well about the city. It's somethng I've wanted to do for so long, and I keep trying, but am never happy.

My GOD, Ramya. And you’re scared about writing?

I envy ANYONE who can write well about the city. It’s somethng I’ve wanted to do for so long, and I keep trying, but am never happy.
