How did you become an author and get published? Share your experience.

I tried very hard to get my books published. I was  not having any money to pay towards the publishing charges. I tried to research all sources of publishers. I requested them. I convinced them. I got published my books at last. But, it took much time. But, ultimately I was successful. I was ready with my books content and book cover page.

Can you explain your writing process? Do you prefer to create an outline and plan beforehand, or do you prefer to write more spontaneously and organically?

I directly type on computer. Later I will amend, alter, edit, delete, add and do what not. I too add some relevant photos. This is my habit of writing.

Tell us what you enjoy most about writing [genre].

Firstly, its my passion to write stories and poems, quotes and articles, short stories and novels. this writing capacity and mind wavelength will improve my brain power and can be long last forever, and my family generations can remember me.

Have you been able to incorporate your previous experience in [jobs/education] in your writing?

Sometimes I do incorporate, but, my experience is old experience and is outdated when compared to youth experience. The trend is changing each day. New technology is coming, Old water go and new water come.

Would you like readers to have any specific takeaway from your book?

Readers always have the edge to take away from my books. It's up to them. If the content is good, readers will encourage the author. If the bad content, the readers will discourage the author.

Do you have any unusual writing habits?

Sometimes. When I dream something while in sleep, immediately, i note down on paper.  I keep near me one book and pen to note down the dream content.  Actually, mine is a usual writing habit. But, at times, unusual; writing habits also come in the way of my writing.  

Share some advice for aspiring authors. What advice would you give to your younger self?1. What is your favorite line from your book?

My favourite lines -

Ultimate Destination:
"If one feel head strong and proud, please see once at the graveyard. Many high intellectuals, strong and influential people/persons merged and mingled in the sand. Route is the same for all.

Head strong and proud never get rescue at the graveyard."

What the Life is:
"Without Armor’s, Artillery, Ammunition and Soldiers, one has to combat in the Battlefield.

This is Life for Mankind, Humanity and for Universal Peace. Doctors are equally great as like Soldiers.

Let's all honor Doctors, respect them on par with Jawans and Farmers."

Advise to young writers- To be in the habit of writing. Spare some time each day to write something. Improve the languge.  Be a literary giant. Be in the social media. Be in touch with various global authors through social media.  Make a good habit of writing something and something withinyour scope of knowledge.

What is your take on book boyfriends? Do they actually exist? Or do they set the bar for “real life men” impossibly high?

All friends come and go type. Time to time boyfriends change. So also girlfriends also change, as per time.

What do you like to do when you’re not writing?

I will be going through all my earlier works and plan myself for the new work. I try to find time to write something and something.  I will, however, keep them as drafts.  When the appropriate time comes, I will insert my draft content matter into the main subject of my content when it is necessary. But, my habit of writing never stopped.

What are you reading right now?

All National and International Newspapers through Online. I read various books of other authors.  I view TV series and Social media news. I am up-to-date in learning new things. I am keeping my brain in ship-shape condition.

Did you always want to be an author? If not, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I want to be always as am author, story and songwriter, script and screenplay writer, dialogue writer, song lyricist.  This is my passion. Because, I approach all the movie producers and request them to use my song lyrics and stories for their purpose.

Where do you like to write? In a coffee shop? In your home office? On the beach?

In my house only, I write every day. I don't go to any coffee shop or to any beach or to any resort or to any park.

I view TV, View Movies, Read Newspapers, play some indoor games, enjoy children singing and dance programs.

Sometimes the characters are real. That is called Non-Fiction. But, slight modifications will be made while writing such realistic content.
