Q) How much time did it take in the process of writing?

Actually a long long time but not continuosly. I started with rough draft and step by step whenever I got time, i tried to work on it between my work. Maybe 2 years. 

Q) What did the process of writing this book teach you?

Writing is possible, then writing a book is possible, then editing and improvising a book is possible, publishing a book is possible. Finally i have decided to write more and more. 

Q) What inspired you to write this book?

Almost every male is a male chauvinist but the level may be different. I always wonder that, why achieving a girl’s dreams always depend upon her husband. From there i got this idea.
