I literally live in a world of words. My favourite exercise is to flex my literary muscles as often as I can. Sometimes I also tend to run away with my imagination. When time permits I love to stroll in a Bloggers Park. And when tired, I also try to uphold my status in facebook. Basically each one of us is predisposed to an addiction- something that fires every fibre of one’s body. For some it may be religion. For some it may be corporeal pleasures. For some it may be cocaine. For me it is writing..........
