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!🙏

    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.

    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.

     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.

The boss and The embarrassment

 For my company's party, my boss and I wanted to go to a party hall. We started from the company itself, in his car. Everyone else left first. We were late because we had some work to do. Those were the days when I was extremely fortunate to work for the ideal company, ideal boss, and ideal location. Everything felt like a dream. My boss used to be very nice to us. He knew the name of the party hall but not the exact location. I asked him if he knew the address. But he was confident that we would figure out the location once we reached there. What can a subordinate do? I nodded my head.  We arrived at the location. There were no lights in the vicinity. He was certain that the Party hall was nearby, but we couldn't pinpoint the exact location. We continued our search on the road for some time. But we couldn't figure out where it was. So I suggested calling HR to confirm the location. "Don't worry, gentleman," he said. "We'll find out." M

"A thief is a thief, whether he steals a cucumber or a diamond .”

Theft is a big profession in the world. From small level servants to big level people, can work under this profession. They earn a lot of tax-free money. I met lots of thieves in a different stages of my life. To take any object without the knowledge of the owner of the object is a theft. Every thief has his own reasons to do a theft.   I  was a child when I met a thief who used to take away children. That day, I was with my Aunt. We went to the dentist for some dental work. After that, we went to a medical shop. As I remember, I was just standing outside of the shop. My aunt was in the shop. A woman having one small child in hand came to me. She said “Come, I will give you chocolate” and she held my hand and started pulling me with her. I was so dumb that I had started walking with her silently. My aunt came back from the shop and to her surprise, I was not there on road. When she saw both sides of the road, she noticed that I was going with a lady with a child in
