Teenager writes her way to Guinness Book

Chennai, Mar 2 (UNI) A college student here has claimed to have completed a feat of 30-hour non-stop writing in a bid to gain entry into the Guinness Book of World Records.

The teenager, Lakshmi, completed writing 400 pages in Tamil on the topic 'This Society' comprising various chapters on love, women, education and God.

She accomplished the task before a panel of judges, which included her college Principal, on Wednesday night. Writing at a speed of 17 to 20 pages an hour, she took just a five-minute break on the whole.

Lakshmi said she drew inspiration to write non-stop from the current record holder, who had completed the task in 26 hours.

Stating she had not taken any special training to achieve the feat, the teenager said intake of nutritious diet at regular intervals was the secret of her energy.
