What would you call a person who is a writer by passion, a storyteller by obsession, a ‘perfect husband’ by aspiration, a dancer by inspiration, a communicator by profession, and a cancer warrior by determination? You would probably call him insane. I call myself Ramen.
Writing to stay within the tolerable limits of insanity — from satire to poetry, for readers aged 3 to 99.
