In September 2015 I contributed a ‘free verse’ poem titled ‘Life is a Wasteland’ for Poetry and stories anthology contest run by ‘Poetry Paradigm’ in association with ArtsForward Ideas & Events and Microsoft ‘Create to Inspire Fellowship.’ The book titled ‘The Dawn Beyond Waste’ was launched on February 9, 2016. I received the contributors copy by mail yesterday. It was absolutely exhilarating to see my first published work.
