Naga writer releases book titled ‘A Diamond of Dust’

 A Naga writer A Anato Swu, released a book titled ‘A Diamond of Dust’ during a brief event at Hotel Acacia, Dimapur on Monday.

The book published by Maurice Wylie Ministries, Northern Ireland was launched and prayed upon by Dimapur Sumi Baptist Church, senior pastor, Rev S Vithoshe Swu.

In a brief introduction about the book, the author Anato said, writing had always been his passion right from his childhood days and that he would scribble down quotes and lyrics during his leisure times.

Lamenting over the time he wasted when he started indulging in abusive substances, Anato said he had lost the best part of his life due to his uncontrolled behaviour.

He went on to say that after quitting drugs he decided to make the best use of whatever time he was left with and that led him to write book which talks about how a person, even though is made of dust, was as precious as a diamond.

Earlier welcome address was delivered by Er Aghali Swu while a short speech on behalf of the publishers was made by Bohoto Zhimomi.

Withee Bible College founder, Dimapur, Rev Dr Vikheshe Chishi made the opening prayer and Lhomithi Village Baptist Church, Dimapur, pastor Toluho Chishi pronounced the closing prayer. The launching event was hosted by Rachel Swu.
