Tonight I'm Heading out on a 10-day tour of of North Karnataka, followed by five days of exploring the coast of Kerala in Cochi and Travundrum. Then it's off to the North for three weeks of field work in Rajasthan, Delhi, Jaipur, Agra, and New Delhi.
I'll be rocking the old-school pen and notebook while I'm exploring. I can't guarantee as many stories in the next couple weeks, but I'll definitely try to get to a computer here and there.
When I come back to Mysore I'll be working at a local evening newspaper called The Mysore Mail, talking with journalism professors at the University of Mysore, and getting the real newspaper experience in South India. And of course, the stories will return full force. Until then, there's always my archives and links to hold you over :).
