Swaroop: For coaxing, cajoling and threatening me and making me do it. Also for proof reading all my stories even though he keeps extremely busy.
Anubha: For constantly being there when I though I wouldn’t be able toΒ make it.
Gopi: For guiding me whenΒ I Β got stuck without even once making me feel like a fool! Β πΒ π
And of course, Aap sab ko to Thank you hai hi hai!! Without you guys this blog would not have existed and without this blog my book would not have been born.

Congrats. BTW have you taken an ISBN Number for the book too? One of my friends asked me in college if I will be publishing a book. I immediately said ‘Yes, I will publish my autobiography!’ That was an instantaneous reaction which made me realize that I had it in my mind. See, publishing a book is a dream for so many of us, and you have done it already! But in my case, I might have to wait for another thirty three years to publish it!! Well you gotta live life to publish autobiography no ? π

The procedure to get ISBN is under precess. Thanks for the reminder though π
And if you have it in you to publish a book.. go for it! Why wait for 30 years π With something else just to keep your writing skills honed and then you will be a pro and will manage to write a superb autobiography. you will be able to write even those things which didn’t happen with you!! π just kidding! π But on a serious note, if you feel you want to do something, go for it!
