It has always been my fondest dream..that i'd just pick up a pen and write a story as endless as the sea and as intense as the sun's rays...The context and story have to be well concocted for this purpose..a subtle theme,a few strong characters interacting betwixt the swarm of many loosely created ones...looking to fulfil some purpose or the other in their lives,which until now...has been just "live to eat, or eat to live"....The purpose of these characters been defined...now lets go to the story...or more aptly,the plot...
The plot should be subtle,stimulating interest amongst readers of wide age groups,young and old and kindle the spirit of adventure,thoughts and imaginations which until now,were dormant and hidden in coccoon...It should be vivid so as to create in the minds of the readers a colourful painting or to be more descriptive,a 3 dimensional view of the scenario unfolding as he unfurls page after page...
The style of writing - Not to forget should be brief,crisp and with a pinch of this and touch of that....in fact it should be almost like a recipe...for there are a few words which give eyes to the readers...eyes to see what each character sees through his own...preferably the protagonist..
For a story to be endless,it should always be within a shroud of mystery...mystery as to what may happen next...the looseness of the other characters should enable the twists and turns that make the saga versatile...
Loopholes are a must in such a venture so as to stimulate reason and to help multiple paths unfurl from the original classic...in other words...a BABEL where each action influences the other's life and epitomises the word "karma"
This I like...
