Writing a Novella for the First Time
So I just published my first novella Lost Boy: The Cost of Intimacy and it was a completely new experience than writing nonfiction.
Toughest part for me was definitely the dialogues. Making sure my characters have their own unique voices, keeping the pace, and making them sound natural. It was all so new and slightly overwhelming.
Though I have just published the book, I have already received some amazing feedback, which I am planning to use for my next novels. I would love to hear what you all think. If you are interested, here's the link: mybook.to/LostBoy

New Family Values Short Story Out Now!
So I have finally published my third short story in Family Values Series - Mrs Sehgal
It still feels unreal that I was able to publish this. From the moment I started writing it, I had 3 oral surgeries, got sick, and renovation work started in my house. So this story was written while I was on some serious pain meds and hearing constant drilling, sawing, and hammering sounds.
Still, its plot, characters, and theme, are by far my favourite that I have written. I couldn't be happier about how it turned out.
You can get Mrs Sehgal on Amazon or read it for FREE via Kindle Unlimited.
