"A hill top somewhere between an uninhabited grassland. Vultures flying all around searching for prey. One silent vulture is spotted on the top of a hillock, gazing towards his fellow vultures. The reason its so numb and silent is that it's wings are broken due to some immaterial cause. What is the one thing that's going on in its mind ? A bird without wings is lame. One need not exactly know what the thought is. Still, there's one word that is the gist of the thought -- hope." You may not fail to interpret the philosophy quite well here, unless you haven't read the Greek story of Pandora's Box. "Hope" was a fairy and some sort of anti-evil force as described in Greek mythology.
Philosophy apart, all I want to scribble here today is an announcement to myself that I have just decided to start writing a novel titled "Broken Wings". I will try not to be a copycat. But of course the novel isn't going to be full of boring philosophical lines as you expect. I am not a professional writer, and write only when I feel the urge to express. So, it'll be I haven't yet figured out the complete story line of the novel. Few days back somewhere I read certain tips about writing a novel. I don't remember the link although, but all I learnt was writing a novel of 200-250 pages requires a whole big can of patience. To write efficiently you need to follow something called the "Snowflake Method". It describes a complete systematic process of writing a story. On day one write in just one sentence, the complete gist of the novel. On the second day, expand the sentence into about 10-12 lines. On the third day try adding details and make it longer. Proceeding in this manner will make a novel more organised and better to understand by the end reader. TIll then..
