Speaking of books, this one (edited by @Chindu - who does @epicretold so wonderfully - and others) is absolutely essential reading. A compilation of interviews (there's one with me!) and essays on the media coverage of sexual violence in India.

For most folks familiar with Indian #mythology, #Duryodhana is the epitome of villainy. He is the Shylock, the Long John Silver, the Bill Sykes, the Professor Moriarty, the Lord Voldemort, and the Night King of the #Mahabharata. #AutobioOfVillain

Yudhistira—silly Yudhistira!—gives away all the advantage his brothers gained at Kurukshetra when he challenges Duryodhana to a duel and grandly announces that Duryodhana can pick any weapon, and any Pandava to fight—and if he won, the kingdom would be his. #AutobioOfVillain

How many young princes would have the courage to tell their elders that the idea of barring someone from a competition based on birth is just plain wrong? #AutobioOfVillain #Twitterfiction

In Indonesian Mahabharata, Ghatotkacha is a very important character. His death is considered as a turning pnt of the war, since Karna had to use the 'shakti' which he had saved for Arjuna. There is beautiful statue in Bali showing Karna -Ghatotkacha fight flickr.com/photos/a_s_h_pune…

Some exciting news, folks. I promised, a very long time ago, I would do a sequel to #EpicRetold. Finally, I am good to go! How does Nov 25th sound as a starting day for tweeting the #Mahabharata — from #Duryodhana’s PoV? #twitterfiction #writechat @ImpsMom @intelshwets
