<p>mid-day writer and romance novelist Aastha Atray Banan on walking the tightrope</p>
I have been a published author (His Monsoon Bride and Games Girls Play) for around six years now, but recently after I started writing micro-fiction and poetry on Instagram, I started receiving more responses from readers.
I usually write about heartbreak — what one could and does feel when they are abandoned by the one they trusted. How does one cope with missing someone? How does one not ask "why did s/he do this to me?" I also write about the fact that sometimes, people just come into your life to make you feel something, set you on a path that you didn't know existed, and that we should be thankful for that. Lastly, my poems are about finding love, and lust, again.
