What’s the best thing about being a writer?
Anoop Judge I love reading human interest stories. A "satisfying read "with plots and characters that light up people's minds with joy and take them from wherever they are. That's also what inspires me to write. Inspiration's not so hard to arrive at when you have a happy compulsion pulling the cart!

What are you currently working on?
Anoop Judge I'm trying hard to get a second novel on paper. It's about two star-crossed lovers who met as orphan children in a foster home in India. They both belong to the untouchable caste and are drawn to each other because of that. Their fates take them out of India, and they meet again in the United States - she's married and, has a daughter; he's divorced and a Fortune 500 businessman. Will they reunite?

I have to confess though, that I'm spending more time promoting my debut novel The Rummy Club and not enough time writing the second one!

How do you get inspired to write?
Anoop Judge I'm a big fan of the Amherst method of writing, which believes (Amherst Writers & Artists workshop method) that every person is a writer, and every writer deserves a non critical, safe environment in which to experiment, learn and develop craft. My novel, The Rummy Club came about as a result of my being part of a weekly Amherst group. Sadly, the group dissolved and I'm still looking for a new home. I've explored writing classes at Stanford; outdoor retreats and writing on my balcony, with a view of the grey morning clouds on the peak of Mt. Diablo. . .and I'm still struggling with what method works best to enhance the creative flow!

I got the idea from a T.V. show on untouchables I watched last year.
