Hey! I brought some Red Pills & Doughnuts.

What's the idea behind 'Red Pills & Doughnuts'? Who the duck am I? Why am I here?

Grab a mug of coffee. Scratch at the metallic wrapper of the pill-packet. Pop out those red-coloured maggots. Pour ‘em in a mug. Gulp ‘em down. That left a bitter taste? Don't worry, I have some doughnuts too.


What’s the idea behind ‘Red Pills & Doughnuts’?

Picture this:

You’ve been typing away for four hours straight.

You stop, rest your face on your palm, and let out a huge yawn.

A glance down at your wristwatch tells you that a break is due.

“My brain is screaming for some coffee”, you think.

So you get up and brew some. The aroma of the steaming hot, mud-coloured drink fills the room.

You settle yourself down on the couch and get comfy.

Now, you probably won’t argue with me if I told you that coffee is best paired with pseudo-intellectual conversations (or banter) and wholesome stories.

It ain’t possible to sit down with a friend or visit a coffee shop everytime you wanna take a break though, so I got you. 

Introducing: Red Pills & Doughnuts. (ㅅ´ ˘ `)♡

A newsletter about random short stories (that will at least make you smile, if nothing else) and pseudo-intellectual conversations about writing, the world and humans. 

Red Pills = Conversations that leave you with a perspective-changing thought or two.

Doughnuts = Stories that make you feel oh-so-sugary from the inside.

Hence the name, ‘Red Pills & Doughnuts’.

A warning: sometimes, it might get dark and deep, sometimes. :)

See ya on the inside, if I do. Happy to have you there. 🍜


Who the duck am I?

I’m Arya — a potato masquerading as a human.

I daylight as a law student and moonlight as a writer, with frequent breaks in between to brew some coffee (my one true energy source), butter some bread and spew pseudo-intellectual bs on the internet. 


Why am I here?

Unlike most people on here, I don’t have a “why” yet.

I started this randomly and outta nowhere.

Just out of the urge to write and spill some words (and hope that they make sense).

I didn’t want that “why” part to get in my way of building something cool and working on something that’s mine.

Writing just happens to be something I genuinely enjoy and like.

And I like this simplicity in my love for the craft.


Still here?

Wow. Well then. Time for some small talk.

What’s up? How’s the weather? What’s your favourite song? What was the last thing you read?
