There has been a bit of a slow down recently in my writing as well..the reason being I dont want to become a factory churning articles by the day.Travel writing is an intense personal experience, sometimes even more exhilarating and draining than the journey itself and just putting it down in an avalanche of words does not make sense to me.I have three articles published last week and my favourite among them is my wild Masinagudi night safari .Please read it (you can click on the words “Masinagudi night safari and it will take you to the article )when you have the time and let me know your feedback . There was a story on a cave temple in Madurai published in Metro Plus, Inside Story and a piece on Kaidala, a small village in Karnataka which is the birthplace of a legendary 11th century sculptor . The links to these two are down and I will post the stories shortly. Meanwhile , the above picture is that of a man smoking in the Kaidala temple.
Where? where are the links 😛
I visited a cave temple–but I am not sure if it was in Madurai. I thin it was near Chennai. Are cave temples common?
Lovely article Lakshmi.
Lakshmi, i read the story on CLAY and it makes for a lovely read and you’ve shared sum interesting info…

You have made couple of important points, perfectly making sense to me 🙂
This time experience speaks louder than words!!!

Nice shot – a very candid moment. I’m off to read your article! 🙂
I have just finished reading your “Masinagudi night safari”, believe me its wonderful.
P.S: I was wondering, if you have some pictures of the dark sky and the animals in the jungle. pls do share 🙂

I read the article on “Call of the Wild” and is an interesting read Lakshmi.
It makes me wish to revisit the Bandipur and Madhumalai forests.:)
Smoking inside temple premises!
This does not happen in other religious places, I think.
I saw your articles Lakshmi, too good!
GOOD ARTICLE AND GOOD PHOTO.
this is exactly why i stopped posting everyday- don’t want to be a factory. good analogy!
This is why I love your site so much – every post is heartfelt, and never feels like a factory production. So take your time!
I love the picture of the old man – there’s a whole story in that picture! I will check out the link you gave, and wait patiently for the others.
brilliant portrait!
will check out on your travelog and revert
But then you are a non stop traveller. hence, non stop writing. Keep them coming.

It more interesting to write our own experience is one in itself.
