I’m happy to tell you that now I’m a published author.
I’ve always dreamed of a day when I’d wake up and sip my hot ginger Chai while looking out of the window and tell myself ‘Now you are a published author. Sip your chai while it’s hot.’
Well, I’m so screamingly happy and excited to share with all of you that the day is here and my first ebook ‘Yes, The Eggplant is A Chicken’ is available on Amazon.That restlessness that bothered me the last two months while I was working on it is finally at rest.
The book is a collection of humor and satire essays on how we drown ourselves in Social Media and how we sneak the phone to the toilet in the mornings because we are so addicted to the internet. Some of the essays are curated from my Medium articles and a there are a lot of fresh ones.
I may feel smug for an evening and want to swirl some wine today but I realize that this is just the start to my journey as an author. The days and nights ahead are more challenging and more demanding of me to continue doing what I have always wanted to do: write.
I would love to mention some of my Medium friends who have been extremely encouraging and helpful when I was working on this book. Notable mentions go to Roy Schlegel, Luke Trayser, Gail Boenning, ιove, Zev, and Ernio Hernandez for being the go-to people for beta reading to title suggestions to cover suggestions and encouragement whenever I needed to rise up from a slump!
Tomorrow morning when I wake up, I’ll look out of the window and tell myself ‘You are a published author but Now is the time to start working. Life has just started.’
Thanks to all my Medium readers and amazing writers who inspired me to write! The book is available on Amazon.
