Interview

Q) Tell us about the idea behind the book?

This story takes you through a mild science fiction romance and action experience. It all begins with the meeting of two people and a watch that teleports them across universes. You maybe pleasantly surprised at the turn of events, feel poignancy with some of the characters at times, rejoice with the characters in their escapes and share their relief and happiness.

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

It took me several years.  

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

I really enjoyed writing this book.  It taught me that with time and patience one can accomplish anything, even write a book.  It taught me to persevere on my goal till it’s finished.

Q) What inspired you to write this book?

It’s an interesting story actually.  I was writing my English exam at school as a child, and we had one question to write a story, a paragraph, for five marks.  I wrote a story, and received a full five marks for it. This story went on to become the first chapter of my Dreams come true book! 

Q) Which is your favourite part from the book?

I hope you have spoiler-alert for this answer.  I really like the beach scenes, and the scenes with healing.

Q) A book that had an impact on you, which helped you in writing this one?

There are actually two books.  ‘The Secret’ by Rhonda Byrne.  ‘Think & Grow Rich!’ by Napolean Hill.  The first book explains how you have to be ready in your mind to want something to actually achieve it, and the second book gives you detailed steps you can take to achieve it.  Both these books influenced me to keep going in the somewhat arduous journey of writing a book.

Tell us about your plans? Planning a new book?

I am currently producing YouTube videos that are audio renditions of the book’s early chapters.  We already have two videos out,

If I come up with another idea for a book, I will definitely write it.

Q) How your life changed after the book was published?

Publishing this book helped me reconnect with my friends, and it has also opened up the avenue of meeting so many new talented voice actors.  I met a lot of people in the printing and publishing industry as a result of this book being published.  I’m also getting information on how to convert the book into a movie.  It feels like I’m walking through lanes and sceneries of new parts of the world!

Q) What is a literary success for you?

At the moment, my book being on Amazon itself is a literary success.  It would be amazing to have people read my book and get back to me with comments.

Q) A message for all the readers.

Love generously.  It works wonders.  Life is so much better with love.
