QUESTION
When did you first realize you wanted to become an author? What / Who inspired you to write a book?
ANSWER
When I was 9 years old, I got an opportunity to attend some special meditations with my parents, by my mentor Sri Maa Sidh Sidhshakti Ji (Founder of Institute of Spiritual Sciences, India). I was guided to do it for making my future bright. During those meditations I got the inspiration to write this story. After that I intuitively got brilliant ideas, unique character names and more, one after the other. I have mentioned about this in detail in my book- Wizard of Sansanadia for everyone who would like to know more.
After getting the inspiration of the story, character names etc., I started to note them down in a notebook. Then I developed the characters and other details. I organized them in charts and also wrote some descriptions. One day I narrated the story of the three main characters of the story- Sun God King Avilon, Princess Lily and Princess Evans to my mother. She recorded it on her phone. Then she encouraged me to tell more. I told the story chapter by chapter in following weeks. Finally it was typed and I edited it many times. After the whole story was written, I wrote down some portions which were required to explain the story better.
It took me around two years to complete the book. I have completed this book by giving few hours every week, after completing my studies and other activities at home. It is now presented to you in the form of this book and more to come in this series. I had lots of fun writing this story. Hope your will equally enjoy while reading it.
