'If Fireflies Told Takes' is a collection of quick-to-read little stories, some no longer than 50 words. While the reader might also enjoy the slightly longer yeans, none exceed five hundred words. The author attempts complete, not complicated stories: still, many contain a tiny twist at the end, some that bring the sun and others a bit of retrospection.
Fireflies are the stars that remain on Earth to light up the darkness. Hopefully, the tiny stories will light up the shadows somewhere and colour the night with amber.
Cindy Pereira
Cindy Pereira, born and raised in Bangalore, India, prefers to be called a storyteller rather than a writer. Her love for making up stories began at a very young age when her dolls became the actors for scripts written in her mind. This turned to writing in middle school when she and her best friend hand-wrote stories for each other, complete with binding and cover pages. Some of her stories spark out of actual life events, and some are just yarns.
She loves to take part in short story competitions and has participated in several within India and internationally. She is the winner of the first place in the 18+ age group category of Lockdown Diaries (organised by Secure Giving in aid of Concern India Foundation) in the Short Story segment held in January 2021.
Cindy has a Master’s Degree in English Literature and loves to trek, run and ‘catch the sun.’ She is married and lives with her husband in Bangalore.
