Disclaimer: If you’ve googled for “fairy tales” or “fables” and are here, what you see below is surely not what you are looking for. They are written by me, not a writer from long time ago and neither are any of the tales below anywhere close to happy happy fairy talesor good ol fables with morals. They aren’t exactly rated, but if you are below say 14 years old, you surely should’nt be reading any of them. I am a mom and I know I wouldn’t want my children to be reading this.
Especially not because of any explicit sexual content, but more so coz
1. You’d be bored halfway through.
2. You’d go “huh” and wouldn’t get any parts of it. Not an insult to your brain but more so of my writing, content and style.
3. Life is surely a lot more fun than what’s written in the fables below. They are just angst ridden snippets of my imagination. So if you have to read, bear in mind that I love drama and can quite easily get carried away by it!

Okay, so now that outa the way, I’ve collected all my little “fables” as I lovingly like to call them, and listed them out below. These are my occasional little side trips into exploring a creative side of my brain that once existed and flourished. It has since gone into a rut, as most writers would understand [if you are nodding your head, thank you!], mainly by lack of usage, extraneous fluff and well, by wicked demanding life holding you by the collar and thrusting you into all things crazy and cool.
Little experiments that I look back on as the words and the sentiment behind them, mean more to me than to anyone else. Emotions ranging from flippancy to frustrations to love and lust and the all consuming pathos.

Rads, great idea to collect all the fables in one place. It’s great that WP allows separate pages etc. Not sure if Blogger does. Here’s wishing that this page is filled with a lot more fables and verses. :)
