Introduction to My Short Story Fiction: Lover For A Winter

“Since 1946-1955 I had been working as Editor in Chief for Exceptional Writers magazine (EW!) in Canada. It was in November 1946 that we launched a new project for the success of our business. The project was named “Post-World War II Best Photo Stories”. We interviewed thousands of potential journalists and photographers. We selected the best 200 among all the candidates. To my astonishment, there was a very young Journalist/photographer named Zubair Bakhtyar at the age of 20 whose self-belief was beyond the heights of Mount Everest. He was selected for the most difficult and brutal task anyone had imagined at that time. His job was to take photos and write true stories about the residents of Yakutsk city, Russia. The story that I would be relating to you is selectively taken from the letters that Zubair mailed us from Russia.” – Khairuddin Ayubzai http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BNH13LS
