Sinner

This flash fiction was written for Tell-A-Tale during the Tornado Giveaway 2 by 'The Book Club'


She took a taxi from the airport to his office, a remote area near the oil-drilling site. It was a spur of a moment to come so far without informing anyone. She started before her courage deserted her. But how was she going to tell him? And how would he react? She didn’t know. A fist squeezed her heart.

He would expect her to fly into his arms and sit in his lap. To run her fingers through his thick...

'Coauthoring' by Devika Fernando

Writing essentially is a solitary field. I have always been fascinated by books which have been co-authored, and often wondered how the creative process works with two different voice, style and minds coming up with a final product.

I welcome author Devika Fernando, who has co-authored ‘Forbidden‘ with Mike Wells and request her to throw some light on the subject. But before that a quick introduction...

Devika Fernando is romance novel author and has published four novels, with a special mentio...

Honoured to be invited by Dell System for celebrating the International Women's Day at Dell Systems, as one of the guest speakers on 12 March 2015.

The Trophy

Picture The twirling continues to the never ending music and his infinite energy. He smiles and pulls me closer. I know he wants me to smile, loosen a bit, look around, pretend to enjoy. My eyes take a sensuous sheen when I relax, he says. I have had a couple of glasses of wine, one more than what I usually take, at his insistence. But it doesn’t help, knowing…

Knowing that the show will end, when the guests depart, the chandeliers are switched off, and the red dress will be off. I will be left alone...
