Q.1 Tell us a little
about yourself? Perhaps something not many people know?
A. My academics were in Science, my
profession continued with Accounting and Finance, and my passion is into
Literature. I served for Indian Air Force and thereafter, presently engaged in
Allahabad Bank. There are few plots readily available in my mind which I need
to express with my imagination and point of view, finally coming out with a
half dozen novels in the coming years.
Q.2 Are
we going to read more from you in the near future? Any new project you’re
working on?
A. Sure, as I was fortunate taking part
actively during Kargil war 1999, while then serving in Air Force. So, the next
novel Across the Border will have a beautiful theme presenting a soldier in
fiction in relation to that war.
Q.3 Where
do you get your ideas?
A. I love to imagine with my perspective
getting explored and hope my ideas are the byproducts of it.
Q.4 What
advice do you have for writers?
A. I feel I am not that much
matured enough to advise. But surely share my belief that is, What you can write and what you write can never be done by anyone else, so carry on stamping your originality.
Q.5 Do
you try more to be original or to deliver to readers what they want?
A. I regard a bit about
readers, but not exactly compromising with my originality. Because I fear if I
start walking without my originality. I may satisfy a lot many but would fail
to satisfy me.
Q.6 If
you could tell your younger writing self-anything, what would it be?
A. Believe a line
always, find a change between today and tomorrow. Anticipating a tomorrow while
being in a today is the best growth you can manage into your writing habit.
Q.7 What
are the most important magazines or websites for writers to subscribe to?
A. I am hardly into it.
So, I am sorry failing for this reply.
Q.8 What
is the most difficult thing about writing characters from the opposite sex?
A. A very strong question
indeed. I truly have realized the difficulties in a span of my seven months while
into this novel. Simply I lived the character for seven months, as I wanted to
justify the real feelings would have been borne by a lady on her such
unpredictable junctures in life. Portraying a lady in the first person with all her
inside feelings, reciprocated to the awful situations and surroundings, being a
male writer was a challenge to me. And, I am too glad that it was a
presentation to be stamped as a debut novel.
Q.9 How
do you select the names of your characters?
A. I personally do not
find any specific objective as far as the naming concept for a novel. I just
match a name that would reconcile to portray the character of my imagination.
But surely, I would admit that the name of the protagonist should hold the whole a frame of your novel and that I did justify a character, named Paayesha.
Q.10 Do
you read your book reviews? How do you deal with bad or good ones?
A. Yes, like everyone,
I too am very particular to my book’s review. Nothing exactly a feeling of good
or bad, because it’s true that if one of my readers attends pub and disco every
weekend and somewhere he or she was handed over with a story of a protagonist
with a multiple mind-fractures under the civilization surveillance. Definitely, he or she would overlook the gist of the novel. So, reviews are really a companion to your level of inspiration, but you should not live into it.
Q.11 Does
your family supports your career as a writer?
A. Yes, otherwise
this novel would have released somewhere in 2029, not in 2019. Because my only
constraint is, lack of time. And those seven months my whole family did
everything to make me free of all sorts of responsibilities towards them. I
just owe to them all.
Q.12 What
do your fans mean to you?
A. I just love them because they are only the real fuel to ignite your creativity.
Q.13 How
many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
A. Just started with An Unmatched Couple's Misfit Relationship, so indeed it is my favorite.
Q.14 Do
you have any unique and quirky writing habits?
A. I will sometimes
write a pure literary novel with all my uniqueness pitched and tuned. As
because readers taste has changed day by day with a shadowed impact by virtual
creativity and showcase, where the theme scrolled up lavishly while extracting
the cream, twist, and pace of the presentation; I am just scared to engage in a
literary kind to attain a book of not less than 350 pages or more.
Q.15 What
do you consider to be your best accomplishment?
A. When I will complete work for a nonliving/semi-living in the first person, I will grade that as my best
accomplishment.
Q.16 What
is the most unethical practice in the publishing industry?
A. Still in research, unless it is over, that will be early to comment.
Q.17 Who
edited your book and how did you select him/her?
A. Deliberately, I did
not take any professional editor. I just wanted my first work as raw as I am. I
did not want to chisel my feelings with a boundary of a few grammar and
punctuations. I believed, a good reader will bypass your shortcomings covered and managed with your feelings and expressions.
Q.18 Which
famous person, living or dead would you like to meet and why?
A. It's only one, My
grandpa. The day he left this earth at 5.45pm; the same evening after 105
minutes, at 7.30pm I stepped in. The only confidence I follow from him as he
was an Odiya Literature Pandit, but I was 105 minutes late to meet him once.
Q.19 What
is your favorite book and why?
A. Obviously, An Unmatched Couple's Misfit Relationship.
Q.20 Share
the experience of your journey so far?
A. It's really
wonderful. Once when you start getting recognition as an Author of a Novel, it
excels your self-esteem.
