Today I’m welcoming Aditi Chopra, author of Lost in London, a contemporary romance. Thank you for stopping by, Aditi!
Aditi Chopra is an author of NRI (Non Resident Indian) fiction and non-fiction books. She is a romantic at heart and believes in living life to the fullest.
1. What makes you feel inspired to write?
I am inspired to write so that I can help others succeed by sharing what I have learned over the years. Before I started writing, I had a lot to share but not enough audience. My need to share gets fulfilled with writing articles and books.
2. How did you come with the idea for your current story?
Over the years, I have come across people who are finding answers to what is love? I wanted to share my interpretation of true love through this story.
3. Tell us about your writing process. Do you outline, or are you more of a seat of your pants type of a writer?
Great question, I combine both of these approaches. Since I am an engineer and am highly organized, I definitely have to have an outline. But I don’t outline to the last detail. I do like the creative freedom of free flowing thoughts and so I leave the details to be figured out as I write.
4. What is your favorite scene in the book? Why?
The last scene in the book is my personal favorite. I have read my book several times and every time I read it, I have tears in my eyes in the last scene.
5. What is the highest goal that you desire to meet as an author?
My highest goal is – for one of my books to be made into a movie.
6. Who is the one author that you would love to meet someday and why?
I wanted to meet Nora Roberts and I actually did last summer. She is such a charming personality and so easy to talk to. She is everything I had hoped she would be.
7. What is the best piece of advice you would give to someone that wants to get into writing?
Best advice for someone that wants to get into writing is to try and write something unique of their own. Quite often, I have seen authors getting inspired by bestsellers and imitating their style. An author who is original has more chances of success, in my humble opinion.
Rahul, a young and charming consultant who works in San Diego, California, goes on a business trip to London where he meets beautiful Priya. They feel an instant attraction towards each other; However, Priya being shy and un-trusting, holds back her emotions when Rahul returns to San Diego. Rahul also finds himself getting attracted to Mona, a co-worker in his office. As the story progresses, Rahul is torn between his feelings for Priya as well as Mona.
As we follow the two love stories, we wait for the inevitable reckoning to be made between love and true love. Lost in London is an exploration of finding and recognizing true love.
