The hunt for 12 of India's finest women writers is over. Random House India and MSN asked you to pick up the pen and shake loose the story inside you. The response was overwhelming, to say the least. We received over 400 entries and we would like to thank each one of you for participating in the Contest and telling a story that lies inside every woman. In the coming days we hope to showcase many of these online for our readers.
Meanwhile, heartiest congratulations to the winners who will see their work published in a collection by Random House India in autumn 2012.* Please expect to hear from us soon.
