Falling – A Short Story

February 17, 2013 2 Comments

As promised yesterday, I have completed and published my second short story, Falling, now available as a self-published eBook from Samshwords.com.Falling is the story of Roy, a man who feels he has a miserable existence and is in a continuous need to challenge his life in order to feel alive. Today, that need has brought him to the top floor of an 18-storey building where he finds out that the only way to rise above his misery is to first do the unthinkable – Fall.

About Shitij Bagga
I am a blogger, writer, amateur photographer, obsessive reader. I like writing short stories and some of my works are published as multiformat ebooks, that can be downloaded from Smashwords. My author's page at Smashwords is: https://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/shitijbagga I am a huge fan of reading and collecting books of almost all genres. I love reading science, philosophy, literature and fiction, psychology, biographies, history, leadership, etc. I am a habitual reader and not a single day passes by without me having read at least a page out of any one of my hundred plus book collection. My favorite works being the complete collection of Sherlock Holmes as well as the complete Jeeves and Wooster series by PG Wodehouse. Reading is a part of me that I can never let go and so most of my blogs would be based on ideas that I got from reading. Photography is also one of my hobbies and I love clicking pictures of the places that I visit. I will be uploading some of my favorite pictures in my blog as well.

I liked the suspense of the story. It has a great hook. The ending is a bit sad though.
