Heart To Heart

Hello everyone,

Thank you for the all the wishes, messages, and prayers you’ve poured in for my family and loved ones after my last post, and messages and emails you wrote when I was not active… I have no words to pay gratitude 🙏🙏

I sincerely apologize for not replying to each of you because I couldn’t. I was tied up on all sides. But your messages made me smile, and made my days more bearable. May God bless each one of you.

Hope you guys are doing well, and your families are fine. Now since we are seeing a regular decrease in number of Covid19 infection, I am looking forward to a bit of normalcy and return to routine. Please, please don’t be complacent. Corona hasn’t gone. The number of patients have reduced as people in India were in a constant lockdown. People abroad are still doing better. But we, in India, can only hope that we have been through worst.
Please follow all the guidelines of distancing and masks. We don’t want a third wave. Right??

Get yourself registered for Vaccines. Whenever you get a slot and are eligible, go get your shot. Anyone who has a query about any vaccine or doubts, can contact me. I’ll try to solve your doubt. But please don’t promote vaccine hesitancy.

A lot of people mail and message me for various issues. I try to deal with the most urgent ones first. So if you have sent a medical query or a serious issue, I try to reply it even if I have to stretch for a bit.

Some of you have asked for my previous books. I’m sorry, I feel really bad refusing again and again, but this is one decision that I took long back for my peace of mind. And I want to stick to that decision. I don’t have time and energy to deal with issues of plagiarism, uploading and deleting stuff all over again. I prefer to move on and do new things, write new books, explore more.
The older books that I have removed will be published as paperback and ebooks.

The last 1.5 year has been a roller coaster for all of us. In my last post – Hang On For Some More – I’ve spoken about how I deal with the most distressing of situations. Apart from all of those things that I do, there is one thing that comes under – things I love to do – Writing is the most important activity that makes me really really happy.

I’ve been writing random short stories, and I will post them probably from next month. I’ve edited Spark & Spice and it is finally complete. You must be thinking why it took so long…
I’ve added more scenes – LOTS of them – without altering the story or changing scenes or dialogues – More about that in my next post on Sunday afternoon… ie 13. 6. 2021... day after tomorrow.

I’d asked about beta readers in the month of April. And then, things got delayed due to personal issues. I’ll be announcing list of beta readers on Sunday.

On Sunday, I’ll tell more about Spark and Spice, changed names of all other characters, and announce some giveaways  too. That’s my way to thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing by me through thick and thin.
I’d never thought these stories will give me friends for life.

May you all stay blessed. And stay happy.

My wishes and prayers for everyone in your families 💖💖💖

Take care

M.
