Small Story 488.

Small Story 488. A New Concept in Storytelling Ram entered the famous bookshop exhibition hall at the invitation of his good friend Krishna. Around a hundred people had gathered for the event, where a new author was about to release his first book containing 100 small stories. The author, Mukund ,had worked in a bank and, after his recent retirement, decided to pursue his passion for writing. His idea of storytelling with meaningful messages impressed Ram deeply. Mukund introduced himself and shared what inspired him to take up storytelling. He spoke about the influence of his favorite film director, who encouraged him to write short stories and novels that carry strong messages. Ram applauded the speech and especially admired the first story, which took just two minutes to read but left a lasting impact. Krishna then invited Ram to say a few words. Being an ex-RAW officer, Ram complimented the growing number of new authors who are presenting stories with meaningful messages drawn from both rural and urban experiences. After spending nearly two hours experiencing this new concept of storytelling and book publishing, Ram left the exhibition quietly, whispering to himself, “A truly good concept in modern storytelling.” K.Ragavan 12-12-26
