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

I was an Author in mind and heart from my high school time. 

I was inspired by my father who used to write articles on local newspapers on International Affairs.

My mother was always encouraging me to spend time in reading while there was no talk about writing. 

In later years that made me to be a self-published author on Amazon. 

 

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?

It happens both ways.

Sometimes it is pre-planned but if and when a new idea clicks on try to jot it down and later expand it. 

Do you have any unusual writing habits?

I do not think so, can not say what others think. 

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 advice for aspiring authors would be not to follow a trend but to be original, you may emulate but not imitate.

I would advise my younger self could save the manuscripts that I wrote in my student days and lost somewhere.

Titles of my books are my favorite lines. They are -

(a) Flapping Wings

(b) Glimpses of UN Days

(c) Models of Diplomacy & Case Studies

 

 

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

I do not understand the meaning of 'book boyfriend'. 

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

Work, travel, watch something on internet, chat ------
