Presenting the Erudite Roulette!

There are a lot of creative minds and brilliant wordsmiths among the Toastmasters of Mysore Area. To challenge them all and to showcase their talents on this blog, we have this new feature - the Erudite Roulette.


This is how it works:


  1. To participate,  Toastmasters send titles to the moderator
  2. For example: Toastmaster A wishes to participate, so she gives the moderator the title "Freedom"
  3. The moderator ends the cycle after a period of time, and randomizes the titles. Each participant gets a title sent in by another. For example, the title "Freedom" goes to Toastmaster B. Toastmaster A gets the title "Easter Eggs" which Toastmaster B sent in
  4. The participants pen a story, an article or a poem (or song) or anything that fits the title, with a word limit of 500
  5. They get a week's time to complete the articles


The first roulette was held on Sunday, 11th September 2016. The titles were given to the participants on Monday, 12th September. The deadline for article submission is Monday, 19th September 2016.

Here are the participants and the titles assigned to them:

1. TM Swathi: Needle in a Haystack
2. TM Ilavenil: Winter is Coming
3. TM Rohit : The Last Bite
4. TM Avinash: Life goes on, come what may
5. TM Arjun: Yes, you can do it
6. TM Tanuja: Discovering Silence
7:. TM Nawab: Dancing Dreams
8:  TM Bhumika: If I give it all away, I will be free
9.  TM Darshini: I don't know what to tell
10. TM Manoj Guru: Just being an Ambivert
11. TM Srihari: Doorway to Paradise
12. TM Pujashree: That Terrifying Moment
13. TM Kavitha: Being Super Awesome
14. TM Anish: Without a Reason
