If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

O…moreWell, the world of my series, Elkloria, was originally conceptualized as my perfect fantasy world, since I was really just a kid when I invented it. Obviously, when I started writing, I had to add issues into it because there needed to be an actual plot for my series, but there are still those pockets in the world of Elkloria where people who live there can just enjoy the fact that they live in an awesome magical world. I would want to just live in one of those little oblivious areas in Elkloria as a wizard, just learning magic and experiencing the world I worked really hard to create.
Now, if I were banned from choosing my own world as the answer to this question, I would just have to say the Harry Potter universe. There's just so much to be explored in it. There's a magic system that I definitely want to see more of and experiment with, there's all sorts of awesome magical creatures, there's really interesting people... the Harry Potter universe would be really cool to be in.
I also like the Unwanteds universe. The society of Artime is (mostly) pretty utopian, and I prefer to think of myself as a creative person, which suggests I'd be quite good with magic. I'd really want to experiment with making magic in that world, and one huge thing that I would love to do is scientifically study the magic of both the Potterverse and Artime. It would be really interesting if I could break spellmaking (or whatever) down to a science that could allow for very complex spellcraft.(less)

Indian Independence Day

Happy Indian Independence Day! (in the Pacific Time Zone, at least)
Today is a commemoration of my great grandmother, Kiran Bala Borah, who fought for independence.

Quotes by Rishab Borah (?)

“The holy one reveals,
The demon child conceals.
By the twins, the soul temple’s key be obtained
To unlock the way to the land untamed.
Goddess of dark and soulless night,
Open the gate as Lunella loses sight.
Life of the loved one, key to the dark,
Eternal darkness, universal war.
Loved one’s life for the gate to Sheol.
Complete the cycle for the savior of old.”
― Rishab Borah, The Door to Inferna
