Hi Monarsingh Hijam,

I see that you’ve written 11 books in less than two years, which is a great achievement. What’s the core motivation behind that level of output?
Author Answer · Apr 19, 2026
At first i started with a poem.. I felt deeply emotional and the poem was my friend. I've written them as it came since then - stories, parables, poems. Cannot really say i was motivated. So, they look part documentary, part diary, part confession, part lament.
