Ankita
I start my search the easy way, I Google her. All I get are Wikipedia articles and reviews of her book. I search more and get the address and phone number of her publisher. I note them down and give them a call. They put me on to her agent, Lisa Hudson. She's polite but firm. She refuses to give out any such information. "Please understand that all manner of people call us with crazy requests like these. We absolutely cannot give you this info. Even if you are her sister.What we can do is send you a list of book signings and put you on to the fan club." I give her my email address and ask for the signing schedule. She promises to send it. I thank her and end the call.
The mail comes in five minutes. I check the schedule and find that there's one at the Crossword downtown next week. I write down the date and time and close my laptop, contemplating what to say to her.
