Nice stories. And the grammer isn't bad enough to stop you from writing :)
Thank you very much, my confidence is a little high now. I think i'll post another story today :)

Hi
Good effort. Have you tried to write in Hindi?
Thank you for your kind words. My Hindi is very weak, i am a local Kannada guy, so my languages in school were Kannada n English. I can write in English, any topic, if you are looking for something. I am very interested in writing.

Can you translate kannada poems in English, which in turn can be translated in Hindi by us. We have a literary magazine Akshar Parv in Hindi, in which we encourage new poets/writes, but it should be of quality. You must be aware of good Hindi poets & writers, to make you understand the standard we maintain.

Am not very good at translating poems, so i guess am not much of a help to your blog.
The blog is good. I have never had the 'patience' for stories; so, I am not the best person to comment on the content. Let others do that for me.... :-)
The layout is interesting and great, except for a few improvement areas:
1. You are wasting a lot of space on the right. The main content frame can be wider - that also helps avoid too much scrolling - something that we all hate. For all practical purposes, you are using only 50% of the frame-width available to you. That's a crime!!... :-)
2. If you are using a dark background with white font, you must be using the "Arial" font. In fact, anything except " Times New Roman " font.

Thank you for reply
I agree with you, am wasting space, i will start working on that.
Never thought of the fonts. Thank you for pointing it out.
Went through your work. Absorbing tales with lot of depth. Liked many of them.
I agree with the font change bit. it will give your blog more style and will be easy for the readers.
have you thought of doing 55 word stories ?
also writing from a woman's perspective.. will be a challenge.
Best wishes.
Thank you Tikuli.
Yes I have written a couple of 55 words

Yes the woman's perspective would sure be challenge. It sure is on my mind, will give it a try in some time.
