Author: Shalini
My first love has always been BOOKS. My favourite gadgets are my phone, my kindle, and now my laptop. I write from my heart, when my emotions overflow and words demand to be set forth. This year I decided to explore my creative side and set forth to explore new avenues. So now
I am a blogger, a writer, a beta reader, an editor, an artist, a budding publicist and hopefully a lot more, as I discover my creative side.
