The run-of-the-mill characters in these stories inhabit small indistinct worlds, away from the limelight. They are shaped by personal events and their environment and view the world from that vantage point. Some are flawed yet loving and stoic in their acceptance of their fate-with an uncanny sense of humour. Some are very much aware of the reason for their fate; others aren't and stumble blindly through various situations oblivious of their impact on others. They are determined in their attempts to stay relevant in a modern world that is driven by technology and media as they navigate and negotiate their trials and tribulations.
