Hello guys! How have you been? I
missed you people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First of all I would like to apologise
for my disappearance, I am deeply sorry for it but trust me it wasn’t intended.
The last four months had been the
strangest months of my life. Couple of month back one of my aunts died because of
breast cancer and though I didn’t meet her in last five years and hadn’t had
any sort of relationship with her but it was still shocking. Despite of the
fact that we were not even close it took me 2 MONTHS to get over it. I was
totally numb during the whole time and kept on asking myself that why the
bloody hell it’s hurting me so bad. Anyway deaths do these kinds of things to
me. Sometimes I even go in shock when I read something particularly sad in the
newspaper and it takes me weeks to get back to my normal self. I don’t know
what is the problem with me but I am currently working on it. Well that was the
one reason but another one was a rather an unbelievably good one. Do you
remember telling me you few months back that I was going to enter into Harlequin
India’s new author search completion? Well I did send my entry albeit any hopes.
You know I’ve never ever won any contests in my life and of course I didn’t win
this one either (what the heck I was thinking! huh?). When I got to know that I
didn’t win I went into really depressive mode and then suddenly one day a mail
pinged in my mail box. It was from Harlequin India and it said that though I didn’t
win but they would still like to read the rest of my book.
REALLY???????????????????????? It took me one month to complete the manuscript
before mailing it to them and then after couple of weeks one more mail arrived
titled “Next Step” and it said that they LOVED it. They freaking LOVED it!!!
Holy Shit!!!!!!!!! They asked me to do some revisions and told me to do it fast
so that we could move along quickly with the process. Currently my revised and thoroughly
edited manuscript is with them and I am waiting for their next mail or phone
call!??
In the meanwhile I am keeping my
fingers and everything else crossed!! Lol
P.S: Now I am back to the blog
and the social sphere so feel free to come back here anytime for new book
reviews, beauty posts, chit chat and gossip.
