Dear Jeyamohan,
The talk about the necessity of writing fiction is really useful. I never thought about it in that angle. My idea about writing was that it is a kind of recording our ideas. You are narrating it as an evocation of ideas or concentrating or meditating to evoke the ideas. Yes, while writing, we are concentrating ourselves as if we are in a dream. We are at the peak of our personality. Writing is a process to invent and define ourselves; that is what I understood from your words, and it inspired me. Despite my lack of involvement in this novel competition, as a 53-year-old male, I feel inspired to create something new.
