I explained: ‘I stumbled upon Aladdin’s magic lamp, rubbed it, out came the Genie, and asked: Where are your manuscripts, Master? I’m ready to publish and print. I passed on my stuff, and the Genie was quick and efficient. He made me an Author!’
Self-Publishing platforms are the Geni

Two Tales, Three Tellers
Books by P. K. Dash
This book was born during an afternoon session of storytelling. If Swayam and Samriddhi hadn’t told me their stories, these two stories would not have been written.

I hope they would create many more beautiful stories of their own as they go along. Just as Swayam and Samriddhi greatly enjoyed these stories, I hope many more c
