To be fair, I don't really get writer's block; I get writer's crevice--you know that place you fall into where you get stuck and feel you can't find your way out? To crawl back out, I change up my routine. I go for a walk or a bike ride. I watch a PBS detective series. I talk to a friend. I draw. I don't write every day either (I can hear the shock and horror already!) :-)

Monterey? My Grandmother grew up in the Cachagua in the Carmel Valley. Stories of living on the farm, protecting her little brother from a mountain lion then building a home in 1931 on Colton St. She was very active in society, the women's club and played bridge like a master. She even met and danced with John Steinbeck. After she passed, my parents lived in that house for years. Good memories!

Thank you for having written such a beautiful and interesting story. Your ten year journey has brought many great joy. The narration by Sneha Mathan complimented your story so much. My time spent listening to your book was a true escape. Plus I learned so much about the Indian culture. What a treasure. I most likely will also read the hard cover book one day. Is there another book in your future?

First and foremost, I have to tell you that I loved the Jaipor Trilogy. I really enjoyed reading about the trials that everyone goes through and the grace that helps them get to the other side. I know that since it is called a trilogy that this is the end but is there any possibility that there may be a continuation, maybe from Niki's point of view?
