Hi,
this was long overdue.
I wanted to write, but somehow couldn't.
Please don't get embarrassed.
You DESERVE this.
I wish to first of all thank the topmost guy..my favorite line...with all my heart. He's the most hardworking fella, works nonstop. Most patient even with the most errant (folk like me!!), always smiling, always positive in outlook. Always muttering..'shanti..shanti..' when all's going haywire around him..
Of course he's Sri Sri Srijan! haha..
Then his cute sister, with her lovely smile. Her fabulous write ups, her incessant unseen but real hard work.
Their parents, the most invisible of the lot, but most dedicated and awesome role models.
Then there's Praveen, the great. He'll kill me for penning this, but he's the best no doubt. But I think he was correct quitting at the right time!!:)
Dear Ashoka, sorry arastu, how can anyone forget him! A voracious reader, do you know he never fails to read a single post every day? And he polls generously.
Great example.
Riya, the sweet, sweet daughter I always wished to have! Super talented too. An asset to wb really.
Percy, is she a girl or boy..still am confused. She dashes in with an, 'Oye' ..scribbles beautiful articles..then shoots off, remaining unseen for ages.
Mr 'Chill Mar'..anonymously..calms me down wen angry!
Book Writer's deeply engrossed into books..some times raises head to see if any thing's 'happening' on wb:)
Mukhtaar, that cute, funny little guy. Who sways this way n dat. agrees with this opinion and also dat!
Visiting faculty, i know u hate this.. but i need to say U R an encouragement greatly so..with your timely comments, technical prowess, prodding on , propping up many a collapsing writer!
Reema, Astha, Arnica, lovely names, beautiful faces..budding writers n poets..like sweet smelling roses in a thorny bush.
Sam..writes too well..with best intentions in mind..straight from his heart..
Ashutosh(the great novelist..brilliant crime detective..he's gone chasing some criminal perhaps..but hope he comes back)
Very quietly going about her duty..Aanya..super reliable..maturity personified
juhi, my new found love, she's straight n blunt (like me) i like dat..
and of course all anonymous friends, (esp the one who missed me today), some who secretly, invisibly peer into each writeup each day...
to ALL of you... I owe a deep THANK YOU.
For reading each and every author, encouraging nonstop, elevating folk to great heights.
YOU are the real GEMS of writerbabu!!!!!
