There are moments in an author\’s journey that fill the heart with quiet gratitude. Seeing two of my books displayed at the Chinar Book Festival in Srinagar, Kashmir, is one such moment.

Every book begins as an idea, grows into countless hours of writing and editing, and eventually finds its way into the hands of readers. Knowing that my books are now part of a festival that celebrates literature and the joy of reading is truly encouraging.

I\’ve shared a short video to give you a glimpse of the festival and the book display.

If you happen to be in Kashmir or are planning a visit, I warmly invite you to stop by Stall No. 38 and explore the wonderful collection of books on display. Book festivals are not just about buying books—they are about discovering new voices, meeting fellow readers, and celebrating the power of stories.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my writing journey. Your encouragement continues to inspire me to keep writing and sharing stories that inform, inspire, and connect with readers.

Happy reading!
