        abstract = {Literature has seen many doctors turned writers. Some of the eminent authors viz. Arthur Conan Doyle, A J Cronin and Somerset Maugham gave up their profession of medicine to become men of letters. What made them do so and what is the highest common factor between them for achieving the exquisite writing skill?  
The present article has established a hypothesis, why particularly doctors have developed their keen interest in literature. While having their training as a medical student and consultant they have to present condensed reports in which there is no room for personal cranks and tares, comments and explanations. During their training period they come across many people and everyone has a story to tell. By putting together both, stories and an organised, disciplined method, they have a fantastic tale to tell.},
