what is better for a society - arranged divorce  or love divorce ....why there is no spate of arranged divorce as much as arranged marriages in India !! i will dug in though the theme has no debate value now in the beginning of 21st century ...at least for the indiblogger community girls and guys .....it would be an issue still in illiterate India, it would still be a burning issue in castest racist hinterland where caste honour and family honour make love-lorn souls flee to save life or they land in a desolate place when they know they cannot fight it alone in such hostile job-less money-less world... they put a suicide note on the bed and drink the poison of life and die in each-others' embrace. We need to spreas this messages to the rural belt  where cust-honour based marraige still rule the roast. This is my first reflection. I ma not sure whether I would be here to submit. For that, I have my cheers here for all the contesttants... make a new India through exploring love and dignity for other soul.

it indeed is an interesting topic - Love or arranged.

We have been hearing from our parents who vouch for arranged mariage posting their own examples how they have been happy since they listened to their parents and did not have too much expectations, and then how the young generation gives example of the unhappy arranged ones where the couple got married but they were so different from each other that they are living together for the sake of it, but are really not happy. Now is the debate really love or arranged marriage or should be getting married to the right person without rushing into things?

Ya interesting topic. So I have decided to take part in the Indi contest for the first time ever and submitted by first post :)

Submitted my post amid severe writer's blog....

Finally got an idea for this one - Doing a story in a series of posts again like my singer series. It won't be that long though. First part is up today. I think there will be at least 3 more to follow after this one.

Yatin Khurana
from delhi |

hey was your singer series complete ....... 'coz I remember reading just two of 'em ....... !! you said it might be published or else up on there. idk what happened next

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

I had taken it down desiring to write it as a book. But then that would require lot of efforts and my current professional commitments would not allow me that kind of time. Mean time I could not bear to keep it hidden from readers especially after princess and another friend requested to read it. So I put it up back again. 

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

By the way it was a complete story in 15 parts. Lots of people followed it to the end. It is my monumental work to date.

Yatin Khurana
from delhi |

fine i'll complete it soon !!

Stephen
from Raleigh |

Wow , your singer series has inspired me man...I might come up with something similar I guess. Wink

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Thanks stephen. Glad to know I inspired. Do write. I am writing something smaller on the same lines now.

Yatin Khurana
from delhi |

well I already wrote one inspired from your singer series and another great blogger (not on indi ) sir suresh ........ it's in my spoof sections ( though this one is a lot lot boring and worth a skip)

Stephen
from Raleigh |

This is indeed a very good topic. Quite common but everyone has different views and would love to read them. Good luck participants!

While all this good I wish the next competition would be on extra terrestrial life or something like that. Maybe after life. Such topics would bring out the real creativity cause nobody knows anything about it. Was just joking. I've posted my work. This is the first time I'm pariticipating in a competition.PS: Anyone knows what the gift hamper is?

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

But my dear friend, the guys who hunt after UFO s do not have money to sponsor contests at Indiblogger. With creativity you can bring whatever you want into these contest posts itself. For example I have brought Greek Godesses into my post for this contest. I was thinking of bringing an alien earlier. Then changed my mind.

Nevin Thomas
from Kochi |

Ah yes. And most of us are indian bloggers anyway. We shouldn't have to worry about aliens. They always attack America.

TF Carthick

Done with the second part of my story. Two more parts to go. So I still manage to keep my streak of continously submitting at least 2 posts for every contest.

Sanhita Baruah

@fool: two posts for each? increasing the probability?  so chances are that you'r gonna win :)

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Nothing of that sort. If I get different ideas or I get a long story idea that can be told in a series of posts, I go for multiple posts. I hardly ever win anything.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

My first post is done! Smile

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Man! I got my post in just in time. I always try to get my posts in before you enter the frame. Once you, Saru Nabanitha et all are into the game, I stand no chance whatsoever of making it to the first page.

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

And by the way, third part of my story is up. Hopefully in the next couple of days, the fourth and final part will be up as well.

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Finally done with my complete story and posted my fourth and concluding part of the story.

It looks like we have a new winner for this contest .

Stephen
from Raleigh |

So will read all your stories for this contest in a strech. I actually like this concept of yours although I am used to writing short stories for contests Laughing

C. Suresh
from Bangalore |

I have managed one entry in this contest just now to keep my record of attempting all contests! After reading yours though, it is tough to see any other entry being as interesting :)

Blogwati Gee
from Mumbai |

How do you guys manage multiple posts................I struggle with one :(

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

You know mine is actually a single story told in 4 parts to avoid too lengthy post which people will people will stay off from by merely looking at the size.

Stephen
from Raleigh |

Ahh! Same here Vinita :$

Mischief Manager

hey guys. I had a question regarding this competition. Can I write a post, which is like a sequel to a post I have written earlier?It will be a new post, just the story would be carried forward from the past. 

Stephen
from Raleigh |

I think that shouldn't be a problem though..

Mischief Manager
from Gandhinagar |

The previous post is already up and running in Indivine. So it would all fine??THough I would be placing link to the earlier post for the readers to know the story.
