I plan to read The Four Winds - Kristin Hannah

I don't write my book linearly. I start on several chapters. When I get a writer's block with one, I move onto another. If that doesn't help still, I take a break and start reading.

I have seen that writers are always respected. If you research well and write objectively, of course with some spice added, there are always readers who appreciate.

Great question!
I particularly get inspired by some historical fact that pops out in the news paper, some age-old controversy still bothering us. Then I really feel like writing about it, responding to the issues raised. As an instance, whenever the issue of an Aryan-Dravidian divide comes up in articles or discussion forums, then I have a lot to say on this.
I hope I have answered your question.

I am currently working on a historical non-fiction on Rajaraja Chozha, the greatest of the Chozha empire. It's going to be an interesting read on all the controversies and legends that have surrounded this emperor. Surprisingly there is no comprehensive work in English yet on him.

Great question!
I have always believed that the concept of Bharatavarsha has existed for many millennia. But there have been many threats to its existence and also many doubts about the concept. I felt that a novel which is located in the most happening period of the Indian subcontinent will be a good medium to discuss these issues.

Don't publish your story in a hurry. Do your research well. Have the conviction that your book is going to be visible for a long while.

I would go to Mohenjodaro and find the secret of the Indus script and about their urban civilisation and why it disintegrated.
