The Author Interviews, Round 2: #6: Pragya Vishnoi

E. Rachael Hardcastle welcomes Pragya Vishnoi to the blog.Million dollar question, are you working on another book?Yes, I am writing the sequel of The Wiccan Waltz, titled The Wiccan Sonata.What is/are your book(s) about?The book is about a young girl Anika in an ancient town Nemtenh who chooses the path of Wicca to find answers to the mystery of life. She experiences the joy of first love when she sees Ryan and she understands herself a little more with the help of her Wiccan teacher, Aparajita. Just as Anika is a step away from understanding the real meaning of her life, she witnesses the murder of her best friend, Shruti along with other innocents of Nemtenh, which changes Anika’s life forever.Does your book have a lesson? Moral?The book encourages us to discover our inner courage and strength, no matter how hard the life may seem.What is your favourite part of your current book?The date between the protagonist Anika and Ryan. It is ethereal and spiritual. Their love story will change the perception about love. Love is not the attraction of two hearts; it is the binding threas which brings together two fragments of the same soul.If you could spend time with a character from your book who would it be? And what would you do during that day?I would spend the day with Aparajita. She is an amazing woman who is both spiritual and practical. I love the doses of wisdom she gives to Anika.What has been the best compliment?Once a fellow writer told me that after reading my story, she would never lose her hope and will face each problem of her life with courage.Favourite fiction book?The Kite RunnerWhat genre do you consider your books to be? Have you considered writing in another genre?My book targets the young adult and new adult audience though I have got messages from their parents that they too enjoyed reading the book. The Wiccan Waltz is a paranormal thriller with spiritual and gothic tone.Planner or pantser?I am a pantser. Planning doesn’t suit me.What would it take for you to leave a book review?If the book touches my heart, I would definitely leave a review.To support this author, please consider checking out the book below.
