This question contains spoilers…
(view spoiler)[I just finished reading your story - my book club's current selection. Would you consider joining our discussion virtually, which will be taking place in about 2 weeks? We are in the same time zone as you are. On another note, I'm pleased and excited to read the coming sequel. I hope that the story line will contain a romance between Dr. Kumar and Lakshmi, as it seems he has more that a collegial in her! (hide spoiler)]

Hi Karen,
I'm delighted your bookclub is reading THE HENNA ARTIST. Since May, I have scheduled 200 book clubs (all the way to December 1). They continue to be a great way to reach readers, and they give me a lot of energy. But I also need to concentrate on finishing edits on the sequel. When the sequel is published next summer, I will open up my schedule to book clubs again, and I hope to get a request from you! I hope you'll be on the lookout on my Instagram account @thealkajoshi where I post interviews and podcasts that may answer a lot of the questions you may have about the book. Until then, happy reading!! Much gratitude and many hugs, Alka

Hi Alka I just read your novel The Henna Artist. It was so interesting and captivating that I couldn’t put it down until the very end. I am also learning to write fiction and have taken various courses. My question to you is that- did you have the plot in mind and the characters before you started writing or did they evolve as you wrote? I believe your inspiration was your mother and her lifestyle. Congratulations.

Hi alka joshi I asked you a question before, but I have another question if that's ok. What is your 3rd book about and what's it going to be called? Or will it be a surprise. I can't wait to read it. Are you going to write more books in the series or keep it a trilogy? I can't wait to read more books from you. From Sarah
