Monish Shah asked John Thomas:

Hey John, great book! Just curious to know, is it your story or anywhere relatable to your journey?

John Thomas Thanks for writing to me, Monish :)
The idea that I have tried to convey through the book is something that I have experienced personally. So, if you look at it from that perspective, then, yes, you can say that it is my story to a great extent.

But most of the plot elements that I have used to convey the idea are fictional. Like for example, Maya is totally fictional - I felt that the story really needed someone like her.
Same is the case with Kyra. And Ramesh. And Brijesh. And all the other characters apart from one.

So, to summarize, this book is an attempt at sharing something that I have learned in life through a work of fiction.
I hope this answers your question.
