Childhood memory
My most cherished childhood memory is when I first got published. My first published piece was a Bangla poem.
It was the winner of a poem completion contest. The first four lines of the poem was given, and contestants were supposed to add another 4 to 8 lines and send it to a popular Bangla magazine. Well, this might sound like the repetition of a previous entry, but this is what came to mind when I saw the prompt today. The prize was three consecutive issues of the magazine, and believe me, that one magazine inspired me to write on!
My first published piece in English was a series of Adventure stories, Inspector Raju. This was the continuation of a school assignment. Published in Bangladesh Observer, a leading English Bangladeshi Daily back in the late 90's. It made me, an outcast, pretty popular amongst peers.
