I loved different kinds of short stories in Exploring My Ideas. How could she possibly write all kinds of topics such as horror, relationship, family, psychology. They are short, sweet, amusing and simple. I can't believe that interesting stories can be crafted with a blend of the truth/facts, observation, perhaps some research and imagination. Fida crafted the stories well with twisted plot, details and vivid descriptive languages to make them alive and capture the heart of readers. I enjoy reading the stories because they bring all kinds of sensation for my right brain as if I'm watching a movie or savoring a new kind of food. Not only the stories are enjoyable, she shared her tips and step-by-step guidance to inspire beginner writers and for those who want to write.
