The confessional style strips away pretense and gives readers something raw and honest, the kind of writing that makes you feel less alone.
Reading Experience
At 36,144 words across roughly 145 pages, this one runs about 3 hours of reading time. Long enough to dig into its subject properly, short enough that it does not lose you along the way. For essays & reflections, this length tends to work well — room to develop ideas without padding.
About the Author
The Cost of Keeping Secrets was written in 2015, when Atharva Inamdar was 18 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The essays & reflections work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. The essay collections capture thinking in progress — less polished than the fiction, more honest, and often more revealing about the author behind the catalog.
