Hi Anurag,
Any topic, however dry it is, can be made interesting with anecdotes. Even non-fiction can be interestingly written like a story. So its up to you to make your work interesting.
All the best in your work.

Hi Govinda,
I think what makes a good story,is a story told from the heart. There is no formula.
Characters that stay with you, even after the book is done, I feel is very important to a story. A slick plot is another good to have feature.

i put my work aside without guilt and do something else, Mainly I read and go out and do something, like seeing a play or meet friends. Then if the block persists, I write something else like a short story and then come back to it.

I saw the illustrations of nine year old Aagnya posted on Facebook by his father and I thought of writing a magical book for younger children around his sketches.
