Hi Sandhya!!! I read When Dimple Met Rishi and I just loved it!!! I'm writing my own novel and sometimes I feel like my story isn't good. I wanted to know if you have any tips on staying inspired and motivated to write? Thank you!
Sandhya Menon
You can find tips for writers on my website: www.sandhyamenon.com under the FAQ section and on my Instagram: @sandhyamenonbooks (look in the IGTV area)!
But as for motivation, the only thing you can do is make sure you're refilling your well--get out there and do things that you find fun and that take you out of your comfort zone (well, maybe once COVID is a thing of the past). I find I get stagnant if I just stay home and sit in front of my computer. I look for inspiration in everything I consume--books, movies, TV show, art, music, trips I take, etc. Hope that helps!

Sandhya Menon:
the first time I ever read When Dimple Met Rishi was when one of my friends told me that it was the best ya romance novel she had read, and now I understand why she said that! I love the humor in the books, and I love how unique each character is. I was just wondering what age you think Dimple would be when she feels she is ready to marry Rishi, if she does at all? and did Dimple's love of iced coffee come from you?
