Fiery Beginning
A story written for 53-Word Story Contest January 2024, Prompt: Beginning
The day begins for villagers in January’s winter by drilling a stick into wood, creating a spark.
That spark becomes fire and calls people to gather around it.
The fire grows, listening to their chatter, giving them warmth.
Hope I drill a pen on paper to create such a spark for my beginning.
Summary:
I want to create a spark with my pen on paper and turn it into a great story that calls out people to gather around it. I want it to grow as people share their opinion about it as it gives them a warmth feeling as they read. This is my dream beginning.

Additional information:
In India, during January’s winter, villagers, mainly farmers, gather around a fire to warm themselves while talking about silly things. Brushing with neem sticks, kids bring small sticks to throw to increase the fire. As time passes slowly, everyone forgets about every problem they have and listens to interesting stories that come up. It is also my fond memory of my childhood spent with my cousins and grandparents during Sankranti holidays.
