Bhakti Vastrad asked Roshani Chokshi:

Hi Roshni, I am very new to reading your books. loved the way you have put a spin on Indian Folklores and tales. Reading Star Touched Queen reminded me of listening to stories my granny used to tell me every night and me insisting on a new one each night. Would love to know if you ahve any favorite story from India Folktales?

Roshani Chokshi Thanks so much!! That's a high compliment considering I was first inspired to write because of my Ba's stories. My favorite Indian folktale is Savitri & Satyavan :)

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

A Goodreads user asked Roshani Chokshi:

How did you get to be one of the Rick Riordan Presents books, much less the first? Was it difficult? Did you have competitors? Also, what was working with Rick Riordan like and what was his advice and input? Thanks!

jeannn asked Roshani Chokshi:

i really, really loved a star-touched queen! i finished it recently and now want to read anything else you've written because your writing is so darn poetic and gorgeous. I read in an interview that you are working on a book based in the la belle epoque era, and was wondering whether it would have a poc protagonist? hope you have a great day/night wherever you are, and thank you for sharing your talents with us all.
