Hello everyone, Happy Thanksgiving!
I have a good news for those who haven’t read my recent tweets or Instagram. So here it goes,
In October, I sent out a handful e-mails to some of the best literary agents in India. The e-mail was regarding the submission of the first 4 chapters of Deceived, my first book. (You can read about Deceived and all my other WIPs here.)
And I’m really happy to tell you that I’ve already received replies from 5 of the agents. I was completely blown away as I was expecting the replies by mid-January.
Okay, so the good news is that 3 of the agents have asked me to send them the full MS of Deceived and the other two are already up to represent me. I’ll be going through the contracts before finalising my agent (yes! Now I get to choose! Totally amazeballs!)
Here’s my tweet about it:
I’d like to thank you guys for all your amazing and encouraging comments because those comments REALLY kept me going!
So, THANK YOU to EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU ❤
You guys are the best 🙂
It might be a while before I make the final call as I don’t want to miss this golden chance to have the best one represent me. But whatever happens, I’ll keep all of you in the loop.
I hope all of you are enjoying the holiday season.
Ciao ❤
Sounds wonderful my dear friend – fingers crossed…♥…

So, want to add some craziness to your already crazy agenda? I would love to feature you on my website. How cool would that be? I think other authors would love to hear how you plot, how you accomplished so much so fast with a nano story and how you’re tackling lining up an agent. Any chance you might be able? (She asks with a hopeful smile)
