I understand the first word of your name because I myself am truly a manic - that is, a manic depressive. I have no idea what a sylph is but I'll let you define it before I unwillingly dig out the big ol' dictionary... :):):) . Beyond that though, you said you were from India but I didn't know that as your name sounds more Dutch - or at least Slavic - than it does East Indian... :). What's a spoiler?

Mona Soorma Hi James
Thank you for the interst in my name. A sylph is an air fairy, an imaginary spirit of the air, also referring to a slender woman at times. I called myself Manic Sylph to define myself in a name. A little crazy, as all those who create are, perhaps, and a sylph, here, if you believe in me, yet not...if you don't, a figment of the imagination of a writer, a poem, if you will...
Also, the name is an oxymoron, which is again what I am, a creature of wild contrasts.
My name is in fact quite cosmopolitan, and belongs to many diffferent languages around the world.
A spoiler is a part of the story or of any work, that reveals the plot in such a way that it reduces or ruins the suspense or surprise element. It is like telling the reader who killed the protagonist before he has even picked up the book to read.
I hope I have addressed all your queries to your satisfaction.
The best to you!
