Gunpowder

Unique ingredients combine to form an explosion!

Unique thoughts combine to build new creations..

Life is full of adventures and wild experiences. With the thoughts continuously running through the mind, we all have strangest or weirdest fantasies and fancies at some phase or point in life wanting us to break free with an explosion.

..if you can't make it a reality, you can always pen it down and who knows it may turn out to be a reality some day..

Write about your wildest thoughts or fantasies which may have come to your mind sometime or you may have thought of the life you wanted to live ever. 

You also have a chance to give a voice to your story record and send that to us following the guidelines we provide and and have them commercially available with royalty.

All authors in this title would be featured in "Daily Hunt Press Release". Daily Hunt is one of the leading content discovery platforms. The entries in this anthology would be sent to producers for consideration of film making, OTT media and web series. Participants would be provided with a separate film-making addendum to sign, post publishing.

Disclaimer: This anthology would not have authors' names mentioned against their stories but mentioned at the end altogether to maintain anonymity and hence authors are at liberty to write their heart out be it love, erotica, crime, thriller, drama or anything that had ever come to mind.
