My Book - Lockdown : A Journey on fire

LOCKDOWN: A JOURNEY ON FIRE


Initially, I had thought of writing this story for this blog only. But when I started writing, it was not falling under a short story. So I decided to extend it to make a good novel or novella. 
Finally, I completed the story. But there were many hurdles. I was not knowing how to proceed further. 

I was not sure whether there will be ROI.

Hence finally I decided to release my book on my own on kindle.

Thankfully I learned many things in this process about editing, cover design.

Yes, I am still not perfect. It is just a start. 

But I am learning.

But one thing I am very much confident that the story of this book will be liked and will be appreciated.

I am trying to learn the skill of writing to its excellence.  


This is a story of a young couple who were forced to travel from Pune to Agra on foot, an approximate 1000km journey during a complete Lockdown in India.

I have tried to show here our unity in diversity and the culture of gentleness in India.
I have tried to put the emotions of laborers who traveled actually across India to reach their homes with the fear of death due to hunger. 
Corona Pandemic was not their concern. Their concern was hunger as they lost their earning sources. 
I have tried to give justice to their feelings and sufferings.

How much I am successful, you need to tell me.

Please read the book, leave a review on amazon kindle if possible.

The book is available in every platform of ebook on Amazon Kindle.

Thank you!🙏

  1. Superb story....I completed reading this book. The story is amazing and very nicely told. There are humourous scenes as well as sensitive scenes which makes this book a complete entertainment but with a sensual touch.

  2. I read this book. This is a story about migrants who suffered the most due to lockdown.
    I really had no idea of their sufferings. I got this idea after reading this book.

    Even though this story is very much sad, it is explained and told in a very interesting style and funny situations are also very beautifully told.

The purity of thought

  Everything in the world in its purest form becomes its best form. The water when achieves its purest form becomes the sweetest in the taste. When air is in its purest form it becomes the freshest air. The same thing happens with our minds as well. If you remove all your possessiveness from the mind, the mind works most beautifully. If your thoughts are pure, you become the best person.  Bhagwan Mahaveer, Lord Ram left everything and become God. Lord Jesus left this world on the cross and it became the symbol of Christians.  Lord Gautam Buddha also left his extra luxurious life as a king and became a saint. When your soul starts its purification, material possessiveness goes away from the soul.  There was a rich person living in a palace. He was a miser, would not spend a single penny extra, or would not help anybody. Once there was a flood in the town. His palace got immersed in water. He was on the top of the palace.  A man with a boat came and as...

Mystery of a shoe bomb

     Lily unlocked the back door of the thrift store using a key that didn't belong to her. She entered the store with silent footsteps. It was late at night, and the only people in the store were security guards stationed outside. Lily had entered the store from the backyard as both security guards were on the front side dealing with a psycho client who was yelling at the business for poor product quality. She dashed towards the processing portion of the business, where donated items are accepted, verified, and refurbished. There were several cameras, wires, and other items that were kept discretely. She instantly began looking in the midst of the mayhem. She found the camera after some searching. There was some data on the camera chip that may assist Lily save her boyfriend. While the data was being collected, Lily began visualising the beginning of this narrative. Lily had just received her first pay check as a schoolteacher. She had set up a date with her...

Sacrifice

Human life is incomplete without sacrifice. But if we have no other option than to sacrifice something is not actually a sacrifice. It is called helplessness. It has an altogether different system. Also, sacrifice is always to give something and not taking out the life of anybody or anything. When we have lots of options by which we can possess more than what we have or there is no need to donate something to somebody but still if we sacrifice or donate for someone’s betterment is actually a sacrifice.  As human beings, we live in society. So it is our duty to donate what society needed. This donation can be small or big but it should be as per society’s requirement.   Donation by pure heart gives the best result in terms of real happiness and inner peace.  Suppose you are walking on the road with a vegan sandwich in hand. And you see a very poor small orphan boy, very hungry crying for food, ask you the sandwich. You already had food. But you have taken ...
