A blog & writer of note: Ammani

Very few people have the ability to capture profound emotions and thoughts in the simplest of words. One such writer is UK-based Ammani. On her now very popular blog, she posts short stories (that she calls Quick Tales) - each no more than a few lines that reach deep into the reader and finds a pulse that resonates in harmony. The elegance and simplicity is mind-blowing. On the personal blogs I frequent, few have made as much impacts as River or Ammani. Here are some of my favorites from Ammani's blog: Irony, Namesake, Photo, Bio-Data, An Expense, Bargain and Secret.

One of her Quick Tales (QT 16 - Secret) was translated to Tamil by the famous writer Sujatha (dialogue-writer for most of Mani Ratnam's movies including Roja, Kannathil Mutham Ittal and Ayutha Ezhuthu) in his regular column in Anantha Vikatan. That in itself, speaks volumes about her writing prowess.



Blog on Ammani! Not long before a publisher picks these up for a compilation.
