Poetry: From Veena Vij 'Udit' comes a collection of Hindi poems: her thoughts-of-a-lifetime which touch on the various nuances of what it takes to 'live'. Comes as it, from as much her own experiences, as from what the world looked to her............an amalgamation of some of the bitter-truths, self-realisations, memories, and hopes.........
The compilation is now in a book :
Short-story writing: She has written a multitude of short-stories in Hindi, which again resonate the itsy-bitsys of life, albeit wrapped in a literary semblance.Interesting and vivid to read, the stories weave around the sub-urban life of the sixties.
Many of her stories are routinely published on some of the well known Hindi web-portals, as well in the Hindi vernacular press: Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar, Punjab Kesari, Kadambini, etc.
You can read some of the published stories here; or you can download some of the latest (2004) stories.
