Meet The Author

What do you imagine when you think of south Asia? 
I think of deers in the glowy pacific dust of Trincomalee, Sri Lanka.
When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer? 
For me, it's both utopic and precarious to write, but I can't say that there was this moment of realisation.
What do you like to do when you are not writing? 
I like to watch sports.
A memory during writing the book you want to share.
When I reach about 60% of a book, the struggle changes in a nice way.
Do you believe in writer’s block? 
No.
