Goodreads asked Faiz Shaikh:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Faiz Shaikh The idea is based in the fact that every story we read needs an element of commitment; a commitment of ‘time’. In a busy schedule, taking out an entire night to read a novel is unrealistic.

One can read while traveling or while other instances of free time. I figured, if I can create compelling short stories to fill that gap. I could help people rekindle their love for reading.

You could get through one of my short stories before you reached your destination, or before you finish your lunch. It would, however, stay with you the whole day, or maybe longer.

It's a simple need-solution scenario which I have addressed with my book.
