The One You Cannot Have (TOUCH)

And so my weekend whizzed by. I have no idea when it came and when it went or where. It was stealthier than a thief, dressed in black, blending  in with the shadows of the night, quieter than a cat's paws landing on cold cement floor noiselessly and faster than a flash of lightning on a dark, moonless, stormy night.

Mostly, I think, it was lost in the huge stir that the sharing of the cover page of my next title created.
I shared it on Facebook over the weekend, but in case you haven't see it, here goes:


It is a story of unrequited love. It is a story of a couple who were in a perfect relationship for four years, and who could not imagine  existing without each other. But life had other plans for them.
Sixty percent of the book is written from the point of view of Aman, who is the male protagonist.

I shall share the back blurb and a little more about the characters soon! Watch this space!

Over the weekend, I was also invited by IIM-Bangalore, to speak at  Vista 2013,their  annual international business summit.




Here is what some people said after the event.









The event was very well organised and executed. I enjoyed connecting with the other panelists.

So, now you know where my weekend vanished.

Though I did not get any rest at all, I am still happy.
And excited too! :)

For my last two books, I had started a 'Tea-for-two-Tuesdays', and  'Wishlist Wednesdays' where I had given  interesting writing prompts. If you have been a regular reader of this blog, you would recall how well it was received, and  what fun it was. This time I  am thinking of running  ' TOUCH Thursdays'. TOUCH is an abbreviation  of my new book-- The One  yoU Cannot Have.

Tell me if you would want that!  I will put up the writing prompts only if there is enough response and demand for it, as I will have to devote quite a bit of time to it. If you are game, I would love to. The prompts would be unusual, quirky, fun.

Do let me know your thoughts please. (in my comment box).


Shall be back again soon.
Until then,

Stay happy and  don't forget to smile!

Love
Preeti
