Dreams of Dania

Dear Urstruly,

Thank you for reading and appreciating the story. It's ironic, I think, that the masses are swayed by tabloid-like, sensationalized texts. Literature, however, is like photography, for one, as it attempts to capture the perception and observation of the writer as he/ she brushes up against reality only later to articulate it interpretively using a called-for depth. I think that more than trying to sell their stories, writers should, foremost, attempt to share themselves with the world. Connect with it.

Good effort, however, story could be communicated to a wider audience if it were shorter. As a matter of fact had this story started with the sentence "Abay yaar go to heera mandi....." and then followed by the neverending diatrib of the first four paragraphs it could have captured a lot more of today's population suffering from the epidemic of attention deficit disorder.

Dear RMor,

Thank you for reading and appreciating the story.
