| Introduction | Writer. Mostly Frank. Good at bad cracks. Bad at being politically correct. Excels in ranting. Strong in willpower, weak in discipline. I am a being with contradictions and that is normal, I guess...Politically I am right leaning lefty with strong liberal principles. Skeptic by approach and strong believer of individual rights, whatever it means nowadays... |
| Favorite movies | Mostly mainstream Hollywood good ones right up to 1980 (the year of Raging Bull). Old Tamil films, Huge fan of Sivaji Ganesan. |
| Favorite music | English: Rock leaning towards Metal, and would go back to Rock, and step back for Jazz (Big Band, Swing, Bebop, Modern & no Kenny G please). Big U2 fan. Worship Led Zep, Queen and Black Sabbath. Tamil: MSV, Ilayaraja, ARR. |
| Favorite books | Collection of humour essays & non-fictional stuff. Early hardboiled detective/noir novel. Of contemporary, can only read Elmore Leonard. Doyle, Fleming & Chandler make me want to write stories. |
