Thank you! I had a great day!

Sorry to hear this, Gourav. I did mail all the books from Canada on Dec. 1. It's possible the package was held up in holiday mail or even lost by the post office.I know that in the past any books I've mailed to Australia from Canada have taken up to six months to arrive. Yours was the first I have ever sent to India. I'm happy to send you an eBook copy in the meantime, if you do not mind waiting for a bit longer, in case the print book arrives. Okay?

Read as much as you can. Read in all genres, fiction and non-fiction and children's books too. Read well-written books and poorly written books, so you can tell the difference. Then have it clear in your own mind why you want to write, why you want to tell stories. If it's only for your own enjoyment, that's fine. If you want what you write read by others then you owe it to future readers to learn how to write, hone your craft, and seek the advice of professional authors and editors. They will be able to tell you when you are ready to move on to the next step.
