Autorenporträt
"Siddhi Kamble is a teenager who lives in Mumbai and has always found herself engrossed in writing - be it poems, articles, essays or short stories. Her other interests include Kathak and sketching. She is a proud student of one of India's most reputed colleges.
Her love for the English language inspired her to write a full-length novel. Having won prizes for her written works, she considered taking a step further and eventually ended up completing her first-ever novel at the age of 16. Being a student of both psychology and sociology helped in adding value to her words, as she takes a keen interest in societal problems and individual reactions to them. Driven by curiosity about different cultures and traditions practised all over the world, she conducted thorough research on the Kenyan ways of living in the course of writing this novel.

An admirer of classic novels and movies as well, they happened to have influenced her imagination. An ambivert by nature, she believes in embracing the beautiful being that one already is - and the novel deals with the very same concept. In order to convey the message of being comfortable in one's own skin, she couldn't think of a better way than writing a book on the same.
