I am happy to have completed the novelette: Word Became Flesh . Word became flesh is metaphoric and stands for Christ having a human body and yet being divine in spirit. In this novelette there are allusions, puns, parables and new figures of speech. There's also a tendency to bring out epiphanies and autobiography. I have adopted multiple genres like the Philosophical Novel, The Painting Novel and the Plot novel, a style of novel writing that I have invented. [more]
