I both dread and love writing the acknowledgment page for my books.On one hand is my firm belief that the more you express your gratitude, the more things there will be for you to thank. And on the other hand, is me wondering if the space I have, will ever be enough to thank everyone I want to thank.
Quite the quandary! Let me dive in anyway, starting with my parents who are the reason why I am who I am. My husband and my daughter for being my spark and my safe place.
My in-laws for being my unconditional support in a society still ruled by conventional norms of how a daughter-in-law “should really” be. My Apoopan for being the reason why I write.
My readers for being my constant source of motivation. And all 4,354 of you (at the time of writing) who cheer me on through my Facebook page. Thank you.
A huge note of gratitude to Anirban and the team at Cresco books, for believing in this short story collection when the publishing world at large is shying away from the genre.
Thank you to all the editors I’ve ever worked with. My work shines thanks to your unstinting efforts.
And finally, thank YOU the reader for choosing this book to read. I hope you enjoy it.
