Takhte & Search Years co-organises ‘Story Writing Writeshop’ for Young Minds at Kalasthali
Writing empowers our thoughts, voice and makes impressions. It can be for self or others. It is such that our expressions in the milieu can bring a revolution in people’s minds. Writing has entered and settled both in our personal and professional world with its diverse styles and forms. Easily demarcated, it can be realistic or fictional. An influential writer is aware of the nuanced insights of the writing and evolves with time.
Under the art of writing comes story writing. Stories can be six words, 30 words, 500 or more. Critical is that the readers can connect with it, and if more fortunate, it seeps into the mind forever.
Writing a short story is testing litmus as one has time and space constraints. But it challenges one’s imagination. Additionally, building a gripping plot, outstanding characters, and witty cum satirical dialogues hone on.

Don’t Let Yesterday hold You Back
Song
Sadaf
Class 5
Gitanjali Vedika School
(Budding Writer attending Takhte’s Creative Writing Sessions)
Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.
Verse 1
Sunlight shines on morning dew,
A fresh day and a hopeful hue.
Let’s leave behind the darkness of night,
And step into the morning bright.
Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.
Verse 2
Mistakes are made; Doubts may come up,
But let’s rise above to blow it up.
With every sunrise being a new start,
A fresh beginning with a new heart.
Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away.
Verse 3
Learn from the lesson and let go of the pain,
Make sure it doesn’t happen again and again.
It’s a fresh day, and a new hope is born,
A brighter tomorrow, in a brand-new morn.
Chorus
Don’t let yesterday hold you back,
let’s get today on track.
Grab the new day,
And let yesterday fade away…

Neural Nexus by Stuti Manda: A Book Launch
The book titled ‘Neural Nexus: Uncovering the horrific murder of a Friend‘ authored by Stuti Manda, a student of Gitanjali Vedika School, Hyderabad, was launched on the children’s day by the principal- Mrs Sonia Nagpal.
The debutante author Stuti Manda’s achievement at such a tender age is awe-inspiring. Her exceptional storytelling skills, vivid imagination, and remarkable attention to detail are apparent in every page of ‘Neural Nexus.’ What sets this novel apart is that a 12-year-old wrote it with a gripping plot, interactive nature, and intriguing dialogue.
Stuti’s ability to captivate readers with succinct yet powerful sentences is genuinely remarkable. The variety in her sentence structure keeps the readers engrossed throughout the book. From short, punchy sentences to longer, descriptive ones that paint vivid pictures in the mind’s eye, each sentence adds depth and texture to the narrative. The grammatical choice adds a sense of immediacy and energy to the narrative, propelling the story forward and keeping readers engaged.
Another remarkable aspect of ‘Neural Nexus’ is the author’s ability to create incredibly authentic dialogues. Each character’s voice is distinct and vibrant, adding depth and realism to the story. The interactions between characters are riveting, drawing readers further into the plot. Stuti grabs the reader’s attention with each sentence and refuses to let go.
The book is available on Amazon.
