20 Questions for 20 Writers

Thank you @the-golden-comet @drchenquill and @paeliae-occasionally for the tag and so sorry for being late i was pretty busy with my college admissions ♡♡♡♡

1. Is writing a hobby or way of life?

To me, it is both. Because sometimes i write it as a hobby and to show people what i write but sometimes it's a way of life, it's like the rush of polt ideas at 3 am and the brain is pushing the ideas constantly and i have to reluctantly grab my phone to jot down ideas lest i forget them and i plot the ideas as if my life depends on it.

2. A journal full of writing notes or a clean, completed manuscript?

A journal full of writing notes. I have many, and i forgot where they are.

3. Who (or what) is your writing inspiration?

Anything, literally anything i see or hear or feel. ANYTHING.

4.Which is worse: someone you "idolize" reading your first draft or listening to you sing?

Listening to me sing. I can't sing to save my life.

5. Has writing from someone else's POV ever changed your own perspective?

Yeah. Many times.

6. Tumblr, AO3, LiveJournal, or FFN?7.

Uhh... is straight to publishing counts?

7.AO3 wordcount, and are you satisfied with it?

I don't write on AO3

8. What movie/book/fic gripped you irrevocably?

Movie: Do Revenge, Maharaj, Sholay, Kaho Na Pyaar hai, 3 Idiots, Chichore, Munna Bhai MBBS, Queen, Jab We Met, Chachi 420, Taare Zameen Pe, Stanley's Lunchbox, Nanny McPhee, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, Wonka, Baby's Day Out, Om Shanti Om, Home Alone 1, Jumanji 1, My Name Is Khan, Padosan, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Gupt, Kon, Main Khiladi Tu Anadi, Aavesham, Yevadu, Raatchasan, Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, RRR, Magadheera, Disco Raja, IPS Vikram Singh Rathore, Thupparivaalan, Race Gurram, Vedalam, Rautu Ka Raaz, S/O Satyamurthy 1&2, and more,

Books: Harry Potter the prisoner of the Azkaban, A Good Girl's Guide To Murder series, Sorcery Of Thorns series, If We Were Villains, Babel, 1984, The Starless Sea, The Enchantment of Ravens, Stalking Jack The Ripper Series, The Agathas series, A Study in Charlotte, Piranesi and more..

Fics: Too many. I read too many fics in my prime AND I DARE TO FORGET THEIR NAME AAAAA- anyways, the one that i remember, and miss desperately and wish to read again is that one Lee Know fanfic i stubled upon on AO3. It was about them being pirates and Y/N being isekaied i guess. Lee Know being his usual cat self, angered Y/N and somehow, by mutually apologising, they become closer. If anyone finds if, lkm 👀😉

9. What's the highest compliment you could ever be given, and have you been given it?

I can think of some. "This has me at the edge of my seat" "You can adapt to so many genres easily and that's what makes you great" "This is the best idea I've come across yet" "This writing looks like Pride and Prejudice."

10. What defines your writing style?

🙂 i don't know 🙂 maybe people who read my works can enlighten me on that?

I'll tag @cssnder @finickyfelix @willtheweaver @ascotwriting @agirlandherquill @leahnardo-da-veggie @illarian-rambling @winglesswriter @paeliae-occasionally @the-golden-comet @graveyardshift111 and this is an open tag to all ♡

20 Questions for 20 Writers

Tagged by: @howtodrawyourdragon. Thank you!

1. Is writing a hobby or way of life?

100% a way of life. It kind of has been since I was a child. I was sick all the time and had story ideas, so I started writing them down when I was too sick to go to school. I got bored of just reading and wanted to make my own.

2. A journal full of writing notes or a clean, completed manuscript?

Well, currently I have folders upon folders of notes for my fantasy novel, but obviously I would like a clean, completed manuscript at some point. The entire work is 28k words at the moment.

3. Who (or what) is your writing inspiration?

My special interests for sure. Obviously How to Train Your Dragon, but when I get into something, I really get into it. Lol, one could say autism is my writing inspiration.

4.Which is worse: someone you "idolize" reading your first draft or listening to you sing?

Probably someone I idolize reading my first draft. I'm getting a lot better at receiving rejection and critique but it's still very hard for me. I had a good singing voice before I had covid. (The band teacher and the chorus teacher in high school would fight over who got to have me. I chose band.) Covid has absolutely wrecked my singing voice, but I think I can get it back with practice. So yeah, I'll take someone listening to me sing over reading my first draft.

5. Has writing from someone else's POV ever changed your own perspective?

I don't think so, no.

6. Tumblr, AO3, LiveJournal, or FFN?

Ao3. One time ao3 logged me out and I was like: "What are you doing? I live here!" I do have fics on tumblr that have over 100 notes and I have no clue how that happened, especially when I look at interaction now. Interaction and fandom as a community are just dying on this website. Oh, and fanfiction.net was so horrible that I deleted all my stories from there and never looked back.

7. AO3 wordcount, and are you satisfied with it?

3,125,805. I'm more than satisfied. I'm stunned. And for some reason self conscious? I've had people call me crazy for writing so much fanfic, especially for the same fandom, and it just hurts, because this is my passion. What did you think I was going to do? Hit 1 million words and stop writing? No fucking way.

8. What movie/book/fic gripped you irrevocably?

Movies and shows: How to Train Your Dragon, Good Omens, Teen Wolf

Books: Hard to say because I only really recently got back into reading. I haven't written fanfic for a book since I wrote a single Captive Prince fic. Oh man, Captive Prince was so good. Thank you pro censorship people for recommending it! (People got so mad about it and the themes in it that I decided I had to read it. So worth it.)

Fics: I'm so, so gripped by @lifblogs Bad Batch fic: Brother, Hold Me Up. That thing is an absolute work of art.

9. What's the highest compliment you could ever be given, and have you been given it?

I think the highest compliment I got was someone reading Infernal Fascination of all things with their book club. Like, this person would give me updates about what was said during meetings and they just devoured it. It was awesome.

10. What defines your writing style?

Visceral description and poetic prose. I like to think.

Vishal in and as Samanyudu

Vishal in and as Samanyudu

Tamil actor Vishal is currently working for a film which is  directed by debutant Thu Pa Saravanan. The film has the tagline, ‘Not a Common Man’. Apparently, the film’s story is centred around a common man who stands up against the system and urges people to support him in the fight. Vishal’s own banner Vishal Film Factory is producing this upcoming film. Today the makers announced the title ‘Samanyudu’ for Vishal starrer film and also launched the first look poster.

Coming on the first look poster, Vishal is seen bashing the goons with a baseball bat. He is seen  as an angry man.   The upcoming film Samanyudu is an action entertainer which has Dimple Hayathi as the leading lady. Dimple Hayathi was last seen in Tamil in AL Vijay’s ‘Devi 2’ and is currently acting in the Telugu film ‘Khiladi’ alongside Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja. Popular voice artist Raveena Ravi also joined the cast of Vishal starrer recently.

Vishal and Dimple Hayathi starrer has the music by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Balasubramaniam is handling the cinematography, SS Murthi is the art director and NB Srikanth is the editor.

On the otherside, Vishal will also be seen playing the lead role in Enemy. He also has a film with Karthik Thangavelu and Thupparivaalan 2 for which the actor will shoot later this year.

Movies watched in Fall 2017

I’ve sort of finally got back to seeing movies, but keeping track of it is proving to be more difficult. This post, which will keep getting updated, will hopefully record all the movies I’ve being seeing this Fall, along with some mini-reviews.

Bollywood

1. Anaarkali of Aarah

A wonderful, wonderful film. For a movie about consent, it chooses wisely as its protagonist, a singer in a small town of songs, more risque than not. Anaarkali, with cherry red lips (or sometimes a shocking pink) moves around the town with a swag, laughing *with* the men in her life. Delighting in her singing, which is the talk of the town, conscious of its admiring gaze, bold as brass, hot as coals - Anaarkali. Trouble comes one evening on stage in her concert in the form of a well connected bueracrat who reeks of poetry and drink. And who in front of the audience, disregards her no until she hits back and stomps off the stage. The sting of power. The stench of fear. All make her see red. And lash out, with no second thoughts  about the future. But the chase begins and Anaarkali runs, to a new city. Meets new people. And tries to start afresh. But, as always, to go ahead, one has to go back. And she returns. Not as a victim, preaching the need for consent. But as a goddess, dancing to her song finally. Boldly saying NO, when she wants. And making damned sure she's heard and listened to. And unlike Pink (or rather the big B) which preached (mostly to the choir), Anaarkali showed us a story. And also danced to it.

Ladies and gents, Anaarkali of Aarah! 

2. Mohenjodaro

Unfortunately, I only saw half of this movie and fell asleep during the rest. I like Ashutosh Gowariker and Hrithik (was a big fan of Jodhaa Akbar), so I really wanted to like this movie... but it was just too slow for me. Maybe I will watch it another time when I am not in sleep-mode.

3. Chalte Chalte

4. Kabhi haan kabhi naa

5. Bareily ki barfi

Excellent rom-com

6. Humpty Sharma ki dulhania

7. Badrinath ki dulhania 

8. Simran

9. A Gentleman

Excellent Indian-ish Grosse Pointe Blank

Kollywood

1. Vikram Vedha

2. Magalir mattum

3. Thupparivaalan

4. Nibunan

5. Spyder

Tollywood

1. Fidaa

2. Arjun Reddy

3. Nenu Sailaja

Malayalam movies

1. Oru mexican aparaadha

2. Angamaly diaries

Others

1. Auf der anderen Seite ist das Gras viel grüner 

Cheesy but supercute movie about exploring grass on the other side by going back in time. Also new crush alert!

2. Die Reste meines Lebens 

Does everything happen for a reason ...including death ? A slightly more emotional and gray movie about a man who loses his wife and thinks he has found love after it, because of it. I really liked the way the movie shifted back and forth seamlessly and grippingly. [A change from the way flash backs are depicted in most Indian cinema - via some character *narrating* it]

3.  Eimall bittes alles

A movie about how life is far from being okay. It is hilarious and tragic and amazing. And with 'Damned and the beautiful' extracts used SO WELL. Also maybe this movie went down so well, because it features a young woman transitioning from University life to the chaos of life outside. From having friends around without any effort to finding it hard to keeping them around for a drink even. From having a purpose (however meaningless it might be) and a way to spend your every minute of time to drifting into this chaos where you are no longer sure whether you are being lazy/productive. When setting 'goals' becomes almost impossible because anything which is less than profound has to be discarded. Luise Heyer is wonderful in this one !

4.  Going in style

Featuring your favourite octagenarians robbing their bank. One of the best recent heist movies. Also it is hilarious!

5. The circle, Lady Macbeth, The new Guy Ritchie movie about King Arthur Films I ended up 'sleep-watching' and feeling meh about 

6. The shape of voice/A silent voice

To make mistakes is easy, to recognize them as mistakes is slightly harder, to live with the ensuing guilt is of course even harder. But truly, the hardest among it all is trying to change, become 'better', become a 'new' person and then fail. The shape of voice, is all about children trying to live with baggage. With the merciless knowledge about who they really are despite trying to change themselves. In some cases, desperately.

It starts with a bully, his friends and his victim in elementary school. It ends with them in high school. Things have changed, things have not changed ..the film is beautifully gray, but they are together. "What is a license to friendship ?" "It is beyond logic, my friend".. Each character was so well done, that all you feel is empathy and not repugnance. The shape of voice - was truly beautiful.

7. Obvious child

A stand up comedian gets pregnant after a one night stand and wants to do the obvious - abort the child. Spoiler alert : She does. That’s it really. Life is simple, after all. Which is what the lead in the movie finds out after a long list of heartbreaks, scares, trepidations, ambitions, misunderstandings. Being a prude mostly, some of the scenes took me a while to get used to (especially the ‘jokes’ in the stand up show), but when a film has a heart, it is not hard to warm up to it, despite the initial discomfort. 

8. Dust in the wind

9. Having you

Not my favourite genre of movie (Life of a man and wife/girlfriend gets interrupted by a visit of a stranger from the past). But this might be among my favourite movies in this genre. The actors were great (I had it on my list because of Romola Garai). For such a story, it was remarkably well done. But again, this is not my favorite story. 

10. Still walking

Watched 'Still walking' and basically loved each and every frame of it. I have graduated from Japanese anime #ahem There was Q and A session right after the movie and the interviewer ended with a long but brilliant question. "This film is not joyous but it isn't sad either. Melancholy isn't the right word to describe it either, nor bittersweet." (actually it has LOL moments throughout, so melancholy is totally not the mood of the movie) "It's hard to describe the feeling this movie leaves us with, but it is a very sharp feeling nevertheless.. Can you, as the director, describe what you want the viewer to take away from it all ?" Kore-Eda : "This film basically captures life AFTER all major events happen. There's a death, there are remarriages, there are upheavals, but none of which is shown in the movie. So at first glance, the surface of the lake is still. Yet, as the movie proceeds, you catch undercurrents. I wanted to show the viewers the ripples that one finds if one looks close enough"
