Well, the answer to this question is on the first page of my debut novel 'Destined to Heal Within' wherein I have written a note on the Author's Quote Page where my friend is telling me – "About reading and writing".
So, I request everyone to check it out there themselves.
At times, writing the story is not that difficult, but getting the idea is difficult, I agree.
The idea of my recent book came to me during the pandemic and how the world had come to a halt. It just crossed my mind during a casual talk over an evening walk with my friend.

Inspirations are everywhere around us. I am an observer. So yes, I do remember many incidents. But my novels are entirely fictional. So, any relevance to such a thing is purely coincidental.

Well, it's the very initial stage of the plot, but it's about a girl who has never used in her life and dreams of being in that mode which I don't want to reveal right now. Also, the story will contain her I promise it will be a piece to read. Check out yourself once it's done.

First, of course, be unique, start writing down your story, and at the end, if it doesn't come out as expected, it's okay; maybe the way you ended is how it had to end and not how you expected. Then, take opinions and suggestions from your dear ones, which will help you improvise your content.

Yes, I do believe in writer's block. However, as many learned and experienced people suggested, I follow the same steps mentioned below.
1. Take a break.

3. Do something else in between writings.
4. Set a deadline.
5. Freewrite.

A girl at midnight heard the loud ticking sound of her and the of her mother from another room, calling her out for help when her wall clock had been for a week. She was about to get up and go when her mother pulled her back and hugged her, saying, 'I heard it too!'

Apart from Paris as described by many authors, I would love to go to the place described by the Author Lamiya Siraj in her novel 'Destined to Heal Within' and spend quality time sitting on the beach and enjoying the stay in the extravagant hotel described by her. Also would love to go on a long drive on the road surrounded by mountains and sea as described in the novel 'Desire or Guilt' and have a romantic evening creating my moments perfectly described by her.

Like the book '50 Shades of Grey', I have various shades during my journey in life. My childhood has one of a kind; my teenage bought their mystery; the youth was transforming me into a beautiful butterfly when suddenly, I became a caterpillar and went into my cacoon. Overcoming my thirties soon, I was 'Naughty at 40!'
So, if I have to pick a plot for my own life, there is a chain connecting the dots of all years of my life that I would love to define.
Stay connected - you never know, the book might be out soon in the market ;)
