Good Luck and well wishes. Cannot be there myself of course, but will purchase the book. First time reader and commenter by the way. I must confess I am ill informed on the subject of bar girls, but I am sure I will come out the wiser by the end.
I am also planning something myself, probably a fiction on how the majority of gangsters or shooters belonging to underworld gangs are actually almost broke most of the time unlike their Bollywood counterparts.
This must have been so wonderful!
Sad i missed it!
Te Aho, Sugar Plum Fairy, thank you for your comments. I hope you enjoy the book!
