    About this ebook

    Erebus, an author, decides to take his life and wants to write a befitting suicide note. As he sits down to write for the last time, writer's block sets in and he is caught between not wanting to live and not wanting to die without a fitting swansong. As he grapples with lack of creativity, he ruminates on what led him to the brink.

    Does he succeed or does fate have other plans?

    R S Ramanujam

    Hello! I am Ramanujam (Ram), An agile coach by day and a writer by night, I write in the realistic and contemporary fiction genres. I sometimes tend to drift into believing that I am a good satirist only to quickly dismiss such delusions with a contemptuous laugh and get back to reality.

      Writing to Survive: A Father on the Death of His Young Son

      Feb 17, 2017
