Folks,
Thank you so much, for your kind(est) comments, feedback and support for my earlier piece of Fiction: ‘Princess of the Dark’.
This post was chosen by the BPL Judges as best in that particular category (i.e. Fiction on child of a prostitute).
Thanks to my dear friends and to BPL.
This time however, there is a dark cloud that shadows the ‘thrill’ of winning. It is a shadow formed by sympathy for children who are subjected to horrendous forms of abuse and who LOSE their childhood itself, in the process. And something else that also contributes to the ‘shadow’ is a vague feeling of guilt. I do hope that some day, I will do something for such children.
Until the next post… TTFN (Ta Ta For Now)

Thanks, Kanagu. I haven’t yet thought about WHAT to do, but the intention has sprung somewhere…
CONGRATULATIONS !! It’s the beginning, Pallavi….you are going to be a very successful writer one day, mark my words 🙂 and you’re heading in the right direction :):) and you’re right, I’m also saddened when I think of the plight of these children. Paavam, for no fault of theirs, their life is overshadowed by unwanted elements. Sigh. 😦
Thank you, Urmi.. not sure about ‘becoming a writer’ 🙂 but yes, ‘writing’ here is a very gratifying experience 🙂 and I don’t think I will go beyond this 🙂 LOL
Why yaar? You clearly have a lot of potential? You and I can co-author a book 😛 sometime in the near future.. whatsay?

Congratulations Pal 😛
It was a beautifully written piece 🙂
Your wonderful narration had left me speechless each time I opened your story; that’s the reason I failed to leave any comment there, despite coming over to do so three times 😦
Keep up the fantastic work!!

As for ‘I do hope that some day, I will do something for such children.’ – I am quite sure you will too. I would like to too. Something tangible, something that will make a real difference.. some day..
