A few days ago I posted on ‘The Sanyasi who became a King’ getting shortlisted in the Best Non Fiction category of the Pen N Paper Awards. It feels unreal to see my book published by Sristhi Publishers and represented by The Book Bakers in the august company of books by stalwarts like Amitav Ghosh and Dr Ramachandra Guha.
Overwhelmed and grateful for the love that’s coming my way.
