Dreams come true. They really do, if you work on them with sleepless nights stuffing yourself with black coffee.
I never imagined myself in this position, in this chair , in this building.The past two years have been awfully tough for me but writing this book has kept me above water, on the surface helping me float in the most depressing phase of my life.
The sight when I saw my boyfriend of 4 years in my own bed with another girl was heartbreaking and It took away my will to live life like a normal person.
I was only surviving, hanging by a thread, no part of me wanted to see the daylight of the next day but I dragged my body through the pain.Then, when I was weeping on the bathroom floor- an idea struck me and cleaning up my face I started working on it.
I wrote obsessively, in the bathroom on my phone, between lunch break at my job, while commuting from work to home. Any chance I could get i devoted it on working on my novel.Before the novel completely consumed me, I was teaching English literature at the university but when I pitched the idea of my book to few of the publishers, I was surprised by the overwhelming response I got but in the end I made the deal with Penguin Publishing house and struck out one of my goals from my checklist.
And under one month of publishing the book, the book got viral and sold One million copies worldwide and made me a bestselling author within a month.
I was overjoyed seeing my book at number one, seeing bookstagrammers reccomending it and giving it five stars.My Instagram was flooding with texts of readers sending me their thoughts and photos in which they have annotated the parts that spoke most to them.
Readers on instagram started tagging actors which would suit the role for my book, if ever it was adapted as a film and I was enjoying the overwhelming response for my book for which I spent two years.
I was riding high on serotonin from the success and the memories and the betrayal has started fading in the background, but that ache, that void was still evidently present. Scratching me from inside igniting the dead fire of grief every now and then.
After the success of my book, I sold my old apartment which I shared with my ex- boyfriend because it was too much for me to come back to the bed where my relationship and trust in love crumbled into ashes.
The walls were filled with memories we made together, souvenirs we bought each other. I cleared all of his traces initially but the increasing amount in my bank statement gave me confidence to move to a new apartment and re-start my life from scratch.
I am also really thankful for my family that they extended their support towards me and pushed me everyday for writing this book.
My mom even suggested shifting herself and my father near me so they could take care of me, but I couldn't ask them to uproot their life and business as I have to get out of this by myself and I did.Now I am sitting in the Netflix headquarters, in their conference room discussing about the film adaptation of my book with the producers and the directors.
When my book -"One chance at love" got viral on instagram and people started tagging actors suggesting for the film adaptation, Netflix saw an opportunity and contacted me with an amazing deal.
After discussing about the technicalities revolving the plot and the need to make small changes to make it more cinema friendly the producers asked me if I had any opinion about the casting for the lead roles.
"I just want Sebastian stan to play the lead role" I said grinning and mentally striking a second goal from my checklist.
