Coming Kingdom- A series for my patrons

Coming Kingdom- A series https://patreon.com/sharmishthabasu   It’s a very normal human instinct to trust his own blood, to have faith on his parents, his siblings. A voice inside his soul keeps saying that those people can never mean true harm to him. After all, they were born and brought up together. After all, they brought him to earth.   So, when these absolutely unrelated persons kept harassing him, slowly molding his life to a blank sheet, he believed in them, in their love and kinship. K had a piece of the, or the entire, Devil inside him. He loved to inflict pain, to suck happiness from every life he thought he could.   K had his branches in every ugly sphere of human deviation.   Starting from human trafficking to the underworld, just like the God he thought himself, he sorted these boys and girls and decided the life they would lead. A itsy bitsy piece from the story.   Coming Kingdom works are for my patrons only righ

It was unsteady right on the D day! To add up her climbing and a little jittery hand was making it dance. Turn back!" a small voice inside her head implored, "It’s so choking in here! What if they are right? "Yeah sure!" another voice taunted, "Like Priya, when she told that her maternal uncle’s room was haunted and he was seen pacing up and down there every night! He just missed the night you sat there on vigil!" "Like Mishtu when she told that the tamarind tree that stood over the oldest grave of the Christian graveyard near their home was haunted.

Waves that became songs rewritten for Kindle and createspace

Waves that became songs https://www.createspace.com/5439616 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WNZ63Z6   Poetry is something which can be felt, not expressed. Not only that, sometimes poet speaks about something and reader reads something absolutely different. So, my joy is writing and hoping they will give you something to keep inside. The poems are versatile, not sticking to some specific genre, I personally think that genre-based books are nice, but if you are writing for everyone then it is wiser to have versatility. So I follow that policy in my short story and poetry books.   from my readers (about the previous version)   Troy ( https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy ) reviewed waves that became songs (old version)   I enjoyed this! July 5, 2015   As a collection of poems, this one was a pleasure to read through, while taking in the authoress's evocative imagery, which supplemented the text wonderfully!
