A dream come true

For over 10 years I had been wishing to write a book. It was one of my dreams. Although I wasn't much interested in reading books, I was desperate to write one. I had friends who have been great followers of Tamil and English books. They inspired me into reading. I started out to read books but often felt tired after reading 20 pages.

Some how my wishes didn't materialize over the years. Finally this week I was able to publish 2 books this week. Both are short books spanning around 8-10 pages. They are free wo download from the below links. Please go through and let me know your comments. Thanks. https://www.smashwords.com/bo...
