Creativity!!!

I wasn't totally inactive during my period of hibernation. I wrote an article for my company magazine that was published in January edition. Hmm... not article actually... it was sort of story (short story), which anyone was suppose to make on the basis of first line... "The scream was deafening..." One was free to take the story in any direction and I choose thriller/suspense. There was nothing much I could do as there was word limit too. Anyway story was selected and published... My first story/article to get published in a book/magazine. In fact I think second one... before this I wrote one article for 'The Hindu' ... :-) So creativity continues...

Story as follows...

Encounter with Death

“The scream was deafening like a sonic boom and the sound started echoing in between the mountains. Maya was falling freely from the cliff. Death seemed just a few feet’s below her head. Her heart was pounding hard as if it will come out. And she can see her husband, Arjun, laughing like a devil on the cliff. She closed her eyes as if she will be saved by closing her eyes. Her mental position was like an ostrich in a desert that skulk his head in sand to have an illusion that hunter can't see him. Maya was repenting accompanying Arjun here on such a height. She couldn't believe that he; her husband can push her from the cliff. And suddenly her thinking got a break. It was all over. Yippee she was moving up in the same way as arjun told her. This was so exciting moment. And this was her first experience of bungee jumping, her hubby's favorite sport.”
