My latest book is The One Who Swam With The Fishes.

"A mesmerizing account of the well-known story of Matsyagandha ... and her transformation from fisherman’s daughter to Satyavati, Santanu’s royal consort and the Mother/Progenitor of the Kuru clan." - Hindustan Times

"Themes of fate, morality and power overlay a subtle and essential feminism to make this lyrical book a must-read. If this is Madhavan’s first book in the Girls from the Mahabharata series, there is much to look forward to in the months to come." - Open Magazine

"A gleeful dollop of Blytonian magic ... Reddy Madhavan is also able to tackle some fairly sensitive subjects such as identity, the love of and karmic ties with parents, adoption, the first sexual encounter, loneliness, and my favourite, feminist rage." - Scroll

Oh wow..

I didn't post about the first time.
I missed it the second time.
And I practically missed it the third time round even.
But, I thought I'd make a note of today.

*1504 visitors*!!!!
Yay, for the big fifteen hundred :)

In honour of that, you're all invited to have a little blog party... *passes around cake and vodka*.
The counter's been up since July, I think, and I also think 1500 visitors in three months is pretty damn cool.

(I should probably make a little speech right about now, but I feel a little shy) So, on with the tequila!

*And this one's for you guys---my regulars who I love*
You gave me something
Like loving
And took me in so soon
You took my feelings
From nothing
Came back at noon
Just meet me
I’m ready
To show myself to you
So if I lose my patience
You must try to understand(try to understand)
If I lose my patience
Oh yeah
Cause you make me feel
Cause you make me feel wild
You touch my inner smile
You got me in the mood
So come on and make your rule
And free me
You make my wishes
As much as
Your kisses make me blue
You’ve found my river
Now will you
Escape away too
But babyI’m ready
I’m falling into you
So if I lose my patience
You must try to understand(try to understand)
If I lose my patience
Oh yeah
Cause you make me feel
Cause you make me feel wild
You touch my inner smile
You got me in the mood
So come on and make your rule
And free me
Free me
Free me
Wow wow wow
Wow wow wow
Wow yeah
Cause you make me feel wild
You touch my inner smile
You got me in the mood
So come on and make your rule
And touch my inner smile
Come get my inner smile
Smile
Smile
Yeah yeah
Sometimes I need to be alone
There’s times I need for you to phone
Sometimes you make me feel so high
There’s times I ask myself why
Sometimes I need to be alone
There’s times...
