‘Magic is all around us!
We just need to have our minds attuned to accept the way the world unfolds its mysteries before us. And we will witness miracles happening around us!
Never underestimate the power of your dreams.
Never allow others to think and dream for you.
And most of all – Never stop believing in your dreams…
I have no words to thank you for the love and support each one of you has given me during the making and release of my debut novel – The Masquerade. My heart is filled with gratitude and so much love that I am unable to express in words.
From the day, it was removed, half-written, to the day, the cover was released, with every video and every poster, I shared with you all, with all my ups and downs – at every single step – YOU were there with me! I couldn’t have done it all by myself. I may have still written the book, completed it, and released it too but the encouragement and support all the time, from all of you, make all the effort so much worthwhile!!
Such a memorable journey it has been. It overwhelms me
I have loads to share. But it was hectic for the past few weeks. It isn’t easy to reply to hundreds of mails, messages, and calls. I’m trying to do my best and reciprocate 🙈😅
One – The book is doing exceptionally well. The exact figures take a couple of months to come but friends, friends of friends, readers, family, relatives, whoever has got the book has good words to say about it and that is the first step to success. 😀✨
Two – The reviews are positive. And it is so heartwarming to read so many positive, encouraging words from all of you and all those who don’t even know me.
Three – A lot of you have asked me to write MORE about RuNi, their journey, their future. Some had questions about the plot in the book. If you read carefully, I have left clues all over. So all questions are answered there in the book (Not discussing here, coz of spoilers 😋😉) But still, some wanted to confirm things. Also, some wanted me to post bonus chapters here. I also have around 6-7 chapters that were deleted from the first draft.
So, here is the SURPRISE — tadddaaaaa~!!! ~
I am going to write all that and take the story ahead as there is a lot about that story that was left unsaid. Or maybe, could be said more…
So, I’m planning a sequel for The Masquerade lovers.
Let’s see how it goes!!
Four – About giveaways! I haven’t announced the winners of the giveaway yet, as due to covid19 restrictions, we have had a tough time sending books to beta-readers and winners of the previous 4 quizzes. I didn’t want to promise and not fulfill. Finally, the couriers have started going and reaching. I will announce winners of another giveaway tonight. And hope the services stay uninterrupted.
Five – If you have written reviews on Amazon or Goodreads, I have good news for you. I will choose 25 giveaway winners from these reviews for The Masquerade and send them my next book as a signed copy. So, if you have read The Masquerade, liked the book, and haven’t written reviews, yet, or delaying it for some reason… please go ahead and write… You might win a copy of my next book, which will most probably be released in the coming December!
One more thing – 2-3 years down the line, I will never be able to open old messages, tweets, DMs on Instagram, or Twitter or Gmail to read your opinions about my book. They will be buried under a pile of other messages. But reviews on Amazon and Goodreads are permanent. They stay there FOREVER!!
And I don’t want to forget any of you. Ever!!
I want to go back and read them and remember your names and how you were there with me. That’s another reason to ask everyone to post reviews.
That is what I am doing these days 🙈 😅😅
Thank you once again for all the love, support, encouragement, and just for being there with me.
You have all my love and gratitude for everything you have been 💖💖💖
Take care of yourself and your families.
Stay safe. Wear masks when outdoors.
Stay home when going outdoors is not mandatory.
This time shall pass too… very soon!!
