Dear Readers,
I’m so excited and happy to announce that my short story – The Human Museum – is one of the winning entries for the Fiction Writing Competition hosted by Story Mirror in conjunction with LNMIIT, Jaipur.
My story – The Human Museum – explores the meanings of humanity and bestiality in a dystopian world where animals rule over humans and treat us the way we have treated them.
The winning stories have been compiled into an ebook, published by Story Mirror.
Here is the link to the ebook.
Bear in mind that you will have to
download the Story Mirror App on your devices
because this ebook is free to read only on the said app.
Should you want to read just my story and other stories published by me on Story Mirror, please head to this link to my Story Mirror profile.
I’m so thankful and grateful for this opportunity and I can’t thank Story Mirror enough for the way its encouraging amateur writers and poets like me by providing them with a sound platform and readership for their nascent work (at least mine is very nascent). If you, like me, are an aspiring writer, I suggest you join us at Story Mirror. Not only does Story Mirror provide opportunities to amateur writers and poets writing in English, it supports the work of vernacular authors and poets too.
A million thanks to you all, my readers, my critics and my supporters for making this possible and for always reading whatever I churn out, no matter how bad it may be. I hope to have your love and support forever and always.
Thank you once again for the love and your time.
Have a great day!
Wow..

I am glad to hear that your book has been published. It must feel great. But, what do you mean the animals treat humans the way we treat them?

Thanks a lot Racheal. It means that this story is set in a Dystopian future where humans are now subservient to animals. Do read it if you get the chance to. Thanks 😊

Do you mean treated harshly? Just to clarify.

In short, it’s like planet of the apes, the first one.

I have never seen any of the Planet of the Apes movies.

No issues. It’s a world where animals are now the most powerful creatures on the planet and humans have become subservient to them. Like how we have pets, breed cattle, sheep, pigs and such for sustenance or for fun. That’s how humans become to them

Honey, it isn’t that long to cover all of that. It’s a short story that has been published as a part of a collection of short stories. Mine is one of the winning entries. Hope that helped 😊

Oh! Well in the first one (I don’t wanna give you too many spoilers her) there’s only a spark in a million apes that humans ought to be treated better too. The later movies are actually prequels to the first classic movie showing how it got to the point where apes took over the earth. You should watch it if you like dystopian fantasies like I do. They are right up our alleys 😊

Bonjour ou Bonsoir PRADITA
Épice de vie
Il y a dans ma vie, une épice rare
Cette une poudre magique qui transforme mon quotidien
en rayon de soleil dès qu’elle se répand sur un problème à résoudre
J’ai cette chance inouïe de posséder cette substance
Quand je traverse des temps difficiles
Quand j’ai besoin de courage et d’énergie
pour faire face au nouveau jour qui naît
C’est alors que mon épice magique
vient poivrer ma journée de compréhension, d’écoute active
Son parfum me soutient, sa force me guide, son arôme de discrétion me protège
Le plus beau souhait que je puisse vous faire
C’est de trouver cette poudre magique
de la répandre avec amour
Cette épice de vie a pour nom
” Amitié ” Bisous Bernard
