I'm truly excited for India. Her journey in writing "The Song of the Blue Bottle Tree" has been rewarding to me as an author. She chronicled much of her journey to me in correspondence. The ups and downs of the writing process - intertwined with the vagaries of daily life, and its travails - were met head-on by this remarkable woman. The result was not a bunch of unfinished chapters, scribbled notes, and the like. Rather, the result was "The Song of the Blue Bottle Tree" - her debut novel. Congratulations indeed, India!! May your work soar!! J.M. Hopkins
