I always was a dreamer n my incongruous surreal world of books was more real to me than the world I resided in.The characters from the books were more vivid and lively than the shadowy presence of the people I interacted with everyday.

As a kid , I used to get lots of books on my birthday. I was not even old enough to... more »

    Hi Mousumi,
    Thanks for following me also. We do have 70 books in common. Lately, I have been reading a lot of non-fiction books, but do read fiction from time to time. I also try to read computer books. I have worked with several programming languages: some Java, a lot of FORTRAN, a lot of C/C++, and a lot of Ada. Have a great day also.

    Hello Mousumi,

    Let me paint a picture with words:

    You are in a forest with the sounds of a flowing brook nearby. A light breeze brings in the scent of pine trees and honeysuckles. You look up and hear a woodpecker on a nearby tree echoing through the woods and it brings a smile. Never having been on this forest path you follow a peculiar trail of roses that starts on the trail and leads off into the deeper woods. It’s a strange place for cultivated roses. One rose after another; they beckon you to follow them. The scent is light and wonderful, sparkles of purple float up from the flowers into the wind and drift off.
    “What on Earth?” In a hole in an oak tree you find three small bottles of honey. A single drop of honey on your tongue is so sweet and delicious as if you haven’t eaten in a week.

    “That is my honey.” The voice is a big one though not threatening.

    You come face to face with the big red dragon. “Oh my.”



    You have a nice shelf.

    I hope you are reading lots of interesting books.

    Dracula: Hearts of Stone is about a suicidal Dracula (he’s a good guy in this trilogy) that must snap out of his funk if he is to help save the world from evil vampires. He's created vampire sheriffs to battle the bad guys but they're being overrun. Piers Anthony (the author) is trying desperately to get him to jump into the battle. It's a tale of vampires, wizards and romance.

    Knights of the Dragon is about a dragon that hires knights to help save Leeander and a young boy that the dragon cares about.

    Unrealistic or not my writing gives me hope. But with something like 50 000 books published every month it is a little discouraging. I didn’t think there were that many writers.

    Mousumi, I think you'll enjoy either Iris Investigates or Belstarr The Lost Toymaker - both available on Amazon in paperback.
