loved but couldn't get. Then you look up at the stars,
one of which you think is that person, and wish that
someday, they come back, and you can continue what
was left incomplete, live the life you always dreamed of.
What if a miracle occurs, and the person reappears in
your life? What would you do?”

Wow, thanks a ton for this message. It was a pleasant surprise. It's my pleasure. I'm always there to help, and you are so very kind yourself, helping me by suggesting editor friends, choosing my book titles even when you are busy with your manuscript, and what not. Thank you so so much for your encouragement and prayers for my second book. That's the least we can do as first time writers - support each other. All the very best for your book. Hope you catch an agent soon and give me the good news. I'd love to see your book coming out soon. :)
