Reflections- November

November started with signing up for writing challenges. I signed up NaNoWriMo, which was the National Novel Writing Month, and NoMo. I failed NaNoWriMo miserably, but I don’t regret that. I tried writing initially, but with guests, festivals, work schedule, it took a toll and I couldn’t even go half way through it, which isn’t that bad I suppose. NoMo, I tried writing every single day of the month, I missed a few days in between, but that’s totally alright I guess.

It was a month full of festivity and joy. Spending time with family, visiting my parents, and then travelling for a wedding. It was a pandemonium state, but full of fun! I met my sister as well.

I came to know about a secret admirer of my blog.tim Doesn’t that give a beautiful feeling inside which is totally inexplicable? I never thought someone could secretly like my blog!

I received a wonderful gift from my Secret Santa, and it was bliss to welcome something from someone you don’t even know. I don’t know my Santa yet, and I am really looking forward to get to know about him/her.

It was a month of a few firsts too. For example-

• My story made it to the final publishing list in one of the anthologies.
• So were the poems. The books should get printed by January
• First TangyTuesday pick by Blogadda.

I know it’s very small, but when it’s the first time, it really means a lot (it means at all the other times as well :P)

Saw Tamasha, and I liked it. Yes. It wasn’t everyone’s cup tea, but very nicely done movie. If you ever take life lessons from movie (when you feel it is right), you can surely get some light there.

That pretty much sums up my November. What did you do last month? Any thoughts you mind sharing?

Happy Reading

Cheers

Secret Santa on the door!

This post is dedicated to my Santa, who is at BAR, hiding his/her face and smiling secretly! What a pleasure it was to receive a token of love from my Secret Santa. All I have is a short poem dedicated to you below!

O Santa my Santa!
You've surprised me in a way
All I'm doing is jumping and dancing in the house
For you're the one who made my day!
I love you to the moon and back
Thank you so much for the wonderful gift
I'm delighted to receive it
Happiness punching in, feeling this beautiful drift!

Thank you so much!!
