I’ve decided to construct my fiction around a desi cultural blog site and a squabble around two of the commentors in a Kaavy-like debate that ended up being published into a fiction. :-)

Why you little devious, shrewd punk. I can’t believe you’re going to PLAGARIZE me. That’ right. Oho, look at what Taz came up with, ALL BY HERSELF: a squabble around two of the commentors in a Kaavy-like debate

Let me break it down for you, beti. One of the “two” happens to be me. That means at least 51% that’s rightfully mine. Also, I was your literary agent, which means that if it hadn’t been for me, you wouldn’t have had the slightest idea about the market criteria for desi Lit. You are trying to swindle me, “borrowing” from my ideas.

I don’t think so.
