A moment in time to be relived

When I began writing 2.5 years ago little did I know what was in store for me. I began writing for the love of it and things just kept happening. From being a scared blogger who had a secret blog to someone who let the blog go public. From someone who could never write stories to being called as someone whose middle name should be LOVE purely for the love stories I write. From 0 to 100+ followers in one blog with 1 lakh hits and 400+ posts , it has truly been an exciting journey!

The icing on the cake happens when I get to know that my dream of getting published comes true. The dream of seeing my name in print, holding the book in my hand and feeling my words is soon going to be true. And all this would not have been possible without your constant support and encouragement.

Sharing with you the cover page of the anthology I am a part of:

It is a very unique project where there are 11 authors who have come together to give you the journey of a lifetime through their stories as they will take you in the last decade/

P.S: The book is still in its pre-release stages. You can stay updated on it by liking it's page Time's Lost Atlas

Book Review: Desiccated Land by David Lepeska

ISBN: 978-9395481205 Genre: Non-fiction Publisher: Vishwakarma Publications Bringing together his experiences as a journalist and a keen observer, David Lepeska writes a raw and gut-wrenching book on Kashmir. Part memoir, part travelogue, and part reportage, Desiccated Land is a page-turner. The book starts by tracing the history of the region along with his own history, as a student who was dimly aware of the history of Kashmir and the turmoil it has been causing for centuries between India and Pakistan. Lepenska takes us to Nilamata Purana ( likely written in the 7th century ) which tells us the story leading to the birth of this region. He also shares an alternate possibility of the word being derived from a lake ‘Mira’ named after Vedic Sage Kashyapa. His first visit to Kashmir closely followed by his second (and much longer) visit as a journalist working for the Kashmir Observer after the 9/11 attacks, make for an interesting read. Lepeska had questions, a lot of them. An
