Hey Honey Bunch

Finally, on 05th of  Feb, I released my latest story. Hey, Honey Bunch. Writing any story, short or long takes a tremendous effort and frankly drains a part of you. This is especially true of me. Stories I write are etched inside me. When I write it is like carving a stone. I hardly write 15% of what I actually have in mind.

HHB is set in an urban setting. Lead characters Neelima and Pushkar love each other and like it happens every second of the day, their love story falls short. But Neelima asks for a thing which Pushkar considers his obligation to give her. Although, in fact, he cannot.

Readers can visit this link at Smashwords where I am offering a free copy of the book for a limited time period. Do add a review and let me know what you thought of Hey Honey Bunch.

The book is available in almost all e-reading formats. Very soon I would be coming up with the print version of the book too.

Here is the cover image designed by me. I haven't got any feedback for the story yet, but feedback on the cover is quite motivating. Now readers are asking me to better the cover of my other books.

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

7 signs you have been trained not to trust yourself (And how to start rebuilding today)

7 Signs You’ve Been Trained Not to Trust Yourself (And How to Start Rebuilding Today) You are not broken; you are patterned. This introduction names a familiar pain — the habit of doubting your first answer — and promises a compassionate, practical map. Read on to find seven recognisable signs, tiny experiments to try this week, and one small, reliable action you can take now to begin trusting yourself again. Are you sure you are not broken but patterned? There is a quiet humiliation in thinking you are flawed rather than conditioned. I used to wake with a soft, inexplicable dread at simple choices — what to cook, which book to open — because I’d learned that my first answer might be laughed at, corrected, or quietly overwritten by someone louder. Saying “I don’t know” felt like armour; it kept me safe from being wrong, but it also kept me from learning that I could be right. When I tell people, “You’re not broken. You’re patterned,” I mean it like a...
