BBB Meetup-15

BBB had our 15th meetup on Sunday, the 26th of August. This was the first meetup that also included a published author Mr.Ram Sivasankaran in our midst and he spoke to us about how he came to be on the path to becoming an author and also about his motivation for the theme of his books, “The Lion and the Stallion” and “The Peshwa”. Coffee and snacks as usual, amid sounds of the thunderstorm outside, made for an excellent meetup.

BBB Meetup-14

We had 36 people in the last meetup BBB#14 and frankly that’s a bit too much :-/ But the discussion was lively, the fries being passed around were awesome and there was hot coffee, so I’m partially happy. What would have made me happier is if everyone could have heard Everyone else when they were talking about the books they were reading and that’s frankly not possible and feasible for an attending group of this magnitude.
