1. So, what’s new
from you?
My debut book,
Tainted Beauty, which is currently in it's final stages of proofreading before
I get a release date!
2. How did it come
about?
I decided that
I wanted to tell my story as an Indian transgender woman and what I experienced
going through my transition. I felt like I needed to tell my story because
there are a lot of questions that society are afraid to ask, and in my book the
reader will come away with more answers than questions...and one hell of a
fabulous read!
3. Tell us about the
process of how you created it.
I started
writing my book during a time when I became very ill and was housebound. It
gave me buckets of time to really process my life into a story and build a
wonderful narrative that was heartfelt and unapologetic but also showcased my
fun loving personality.
4. What was your
favourite part of the process?
Watching my
husband's reaction when he got the opportunity to really learn about what I
have been through.
5. What was the
toughest part of it?
Having to not
only relive some of the darkest moments in my life, but then having to write
them down in detail. It really drained my emotions to relive those memories.
6. Is there a theme
running through it?
Be your
authentic self and and respect others for who they are.
7. If you had to sum
this book up in three words, what would they be?
ONE. ICONIC.
STORY.
8. Where can/will we be
able to get hold of it?
When released,
it will be available at Amazon, WH Smiths, Waterstones and Barnes and Noble!
Well firstly I am young, broke and fabulous...wait, wrong queen! This kween is defo on my 'to read' list!
