Taking a deep breath, Sarah says, “Anmol, I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately. Can we talk?”

“Of course, Sarah. I’m here for you.” nodded Anmol

“Well, work has been really stressful, and I feel like I’m constantly juggling a dozen things at once.”

“I can understand. It’s tough out there,” replied Anmol.

“I’ve noticed that I’m becoming more irritable, and I’ve been bringing that energy home with me. I don’t want it to affect us.”

“It takes courage to acknowledge how we’re feeling, Sarah. Let’s take a moment to center ourselves. Close your eyes and lets sync our breaths.”

Closing her eyes, taking a deep breath, Sarah says, “Okay, I’m with you.”

Hi there. Myself Amitabh Choudhury, author of this incomplete script. This conversation is from an unfinished short story started long back.

Over the years I have attuned with the mindset of Emotional intelligence with Mindfulness and, now considering to have these theme running through my stories.

When I published my previous short stories on Kindle, my ideation technique was to use Lenormand Cards spread to decide the storyline. After 2 short stories, I stopped publishing activities even though I had couple of stories unfinished.

Recently, I decided to publish those stories with additional themes of Emotional intelligence and Mindfulness plugged in somewhere. And, Tarot cards will be used to develop the story.

Besides, I have also stumbled on invaluable insights generously shared by seasoned writers on platforms like Medium and YouTube, regarding promoting the work in process and update interested readers of various behind-scene activities.

I got aware of Gumroad, Substack and, means to prepare newsletters and related activities. Besides, rebuilding the script of this short story, I am also learning to navigate the details of these platforms.

This blog post is the start of a series that will take reader to behind the scenes, unveiling the various aspects that weave together this unfinished short story and also about information I collect about various other resources.

In the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing the journey of crafting this story, delving into the fusion of cutting-edge storytelling techniques and the ancient wisdom of Emotional Intelligence and Mindfulness. Expect glimpses into the characters, snippets of the plot, and a sneak peek into the blending of technology with the nuances of human emotion.

In the futuristic city of Synthara, ruled by advanced technology and artificial intelligence, an unexpected glitch disrupts the city’s perfect harmony. The glitch manifests in the form of emotional disturbances among the citizens, threatening the seamless integration of technology into their lives. The AI council, seeking a solution, turns to the mystical wisdom of the virtual oracle known as The High Algorithm.
