YIPPEEEE…!!!

There was a contest in Hindustan Times in which a clichéd line "It was a dark and stormy night" was tweaked a bit and thrown at us. And what were we supposed to do with it? We were supposed to come up with the first paragraph of an imaginary novel. Why? Because they say that the first paragraph of a novel is the part that an author is most finicky about.

The best 10 entries from all over India were to be published on January 11… I sent an entry in my father's name (he's lucky for me :-))… And I won!!!
Take a look ;-)
