“A Tea-Stall by the Side of the Road” by Murad

“A Tea-Stall by the Side of the Road” is a collection of short stories based on anecdotes, folklore and urban legends from all over the country. Presented in the first person narrative, these stories are based on actual experiences. A tea-stall, popularly called a ‘tapri’ in India, is a place where people gather to gossip, share news and views, tales and anecdotes. It is also the favoured place for inspiration and the author’s preferred spot for writing his book. The book is well-suited to be read over a relaxing cup of tea, around the coffee table or around a campfire on a weekend getaway trip. It has stories from all genres including humour, drama, horror and romance. Thus, there is something good for every mood and taste.

This book marks the beginning of the journey for Murad as an author. However, he has always been an avid storyteller, blogger, and voracious reader throughout his life. An accomplished artist, Murad has multiple solo and joint exhibitions of his oil paintings to his credit, in various parts of the country. A management graduate by education and a risk analyst by profession, his real passion lies in his writing, oil painting, and long rides on his favourite motorcycle. This book took shape on multiple such rides and over countless cups of tea at tea-stalls.

“A Tea-Stall by the Side of the Road” is available on Amazon, Flipkart, Shopclues and BlueRose.

"To, All Who Wander" By Pranavi VR

"We all know about career and passion... Ever heard of ""pet-passions""?


As we all grow up, we make our careers but only a few of us make it in what we really are passionate about. Passion is strange! Some of us realize it early, some of us a little late and then there are people who are only introduced to it while pursuing their 'pet-passions'. Pet-passions act like a torch in the darkness and chaos, paving a path to our ultimate passion.
Amidst the monotonous mindsets of our current society, stereotypes, social statuses, gender bias and inequality emerge three women who lived robotic lives only until they discern their true passions and rise against all odds of their family, friendships, love life and other futile drama. This story is to sure make you relate, feel and fall for the characters and their roller coaster journey of achieving the ultimate joy & Nirvana!
""Is Life like the films or are the films like life?!"" Well, how does it matter when they're all stories in the end? Or wait, do they?

"Watch the Nib Dance" By Anujaya Krishna

"Is there anyone who hasn’t loved or lost a dear one or experienced both? Is there anyone who does not get flashes of memories from childhood every now and then, or just wonder at how the world one read about or saw as sci-fi is now leaping towards reality? Is there anyone who does not feel outraged by the lack of humaneness on display at times? Is there anyone who has not asked this question to themselves, ""Where am I? What am I doing?""

Watch the Nib Dance is an anthology of poems traversing through a range of areas and emotions - nature, society, war, peace, gender issues, law, love, grief, finding oneself, and nostalgia. Poetry is much like dance - you can learn a thousand techniques but when you actually start dancing, it innately flows. That is what happens when you put pen to paper - whatever it is that has left an impression on your senses, soul or conscience, finds its way out. That is where the poetry in this book comes from.

It will resonate with some part of you - personal or professional, or just by virtue of being human - for words are powerful enough to stir what lies beneath."

"Anujaya Krishna is a legal professional and an educator hailing from Lucknow.
She completed her schooling from Loreto Convent and City Montessori School, and graduated in B.A.LL.B. (Hons.) from National Law Institute University, Bhopal. She did her Master's in Law from Europa-Kolleg, University of Hamburg. Her book, Sports Law, was published in 2014. She has a penchant for writing and composing poetry, and through the years, has kept pace with this passion of hers. She participated in her first poetry slam in Singapore, and wants to take forward both written and spoken word poetry."

"Vastavikta" By Ranbir Singh Balwada

This book has been dedicated to my father late Shri Jhutha ram ji Balwada who had been an inspiration to us all in every walk of life. He was an ardent believer of facts of life and was a man of principles. I have brought down the truth which has been existing on the earth an the universe but very few admire its beauty, the chirping of birds, soft touch of wind and the hassles of life which passes on with time unaware of its slow-moving end to the eternal abode. Human beings come and go but seldom peep into nature its true Devine recourse. This book has some untouched facts of reality which a person confronts with. It is an admirable theory of my mother Kitab Kaur who taught us the minute realms of life and to face the hardships altogether with my wife and kids, my siblings and family as a whole.

I am sure my readers will enjoy the real facts that I have tried to pen down in this book.

The author after completing his primary education in a remote village in Rajasthan moved on to Ajmer for higher studies,the city is a renowned historical site of modern era and is a hub of education in India with cluster of educational institutes. The auther after working as an officer in Central Govt. Organisations of repute is now working as Assistant General Manager Ina German MNC.
The author has tried to touch the facts of the Devine earth,the universe and its active elements credited with the grandeur of its array of participants, the air, the trees, birds, celestial bodies, the sun, the moon, the stars and what no.

“Viramishi” by Gaurav Rajput

“A stone, which has been waiting to originate from the last three eras has now become the god of the world Kalrathi.
To prevent him, all the gods together create a human.
So, could Viramishi stop the stone Kalrathi, who had a part of both the god and the demon?
A war has started between them, which has now become an Epic – Viramishi (Manav ya Avatar)”.

Please read all the poems of the book, and you may find in them the depiction of your own feelings. It’s the mirror of yourself, myself and the people around us.
