I have learnt from reading books by foreigners about India and Indians that it is very difficult to impress Indians. You should know enough to write about. In my case, I'm not sure I did a thorough research, but completely immersed myself in writing about a culture I wasn't born into. Then I was able to convince a Nigerian publisher to take up the book. He believed in me and published it. Now, an Indian publisher, Serene Woods, has published it and they have it as their 'Book of the Week.'
I hope the sales increase.
Dhanyavaad, India!

Namaste, Onyeka. Yes, we Indian readers are very demanding. Let me first read your book, I'm sure to find a bunch of errors in it ;p
Ha, ha ha. Hoping you don't scare me, Hansdaji.
