My only feedback is that if you edit and re-edit, your stories would become more taut. But then, that's just me nit-picking :)<BR/><BR/>Regarding the story itself, I think this happens in EVERY household....irrespective of religion or inter-caste-marriages/etc. It all boils down to: "This girl isn't good enough for my son"!!<BR/><BR/>This is a version I'd written sometime back:<BR/><BR/>"If you were judged...every second, every minute,<BR/>Under a discreet gaze, that laps up every error.<BR/><BR/>A bad action being a judgement on your upbringing,<BR/>Even a good action, post-mortemed for unorthodoxy.<BR/><BR/>Will you still be able, to breathe free ?<BR/>To be yourself ? To be....just happy ?"<BR/><BR/>Thanks for writing your story..and do keep writing!<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>PallaviAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234671222183980263.post-66523658020592273712008-10-03T04:02:00.000-07:002008-10-03T04:02:00.000-07:00O I love your writing Anu.
