Q1) Since when did you start having interest in writing ? Tell us something about your writing journey.
Ans.:-I started this writing journey in 2012 when I was in my second year of engineering. But the real interest started when I started trekking, travelling, doing social work in 2014 and meet my one of very close friend from Pune Shri Joshi who was the true guiding, supporting person in my initial journey. He saw my writing content, appreciated it and guided me properly to start writing professionally through social media platforms by having my own blogs and personal pages on Instagram & Facebook by name #Amulyavichaar. It helped me to great extent to continue writing positive stories, quotes and help others in best possible ways for their positive mental health. People’s positive appreciation motivated me to published 25 articles about travelling, inspiring stories with Mumbai Times Newspaper and as coauthor with 12 different books.
Q2) How did the idea of “A little Hug of Positivity” come to your mind. Tell us more about the plot of the book. Also share the link of the book.
Ans.:-What motivated me to write this book was a deep desire to share with others that answers I have discovered to these and many similar phases like everyone’s life. I have tried to explain the great fundamental truths of everyone’s mind in the simplest language possible. I believe that it is perfectly possible to explain the basic things of your mind in ordinary everyday language. You will find that the language of this book is that used in your daily papers and current periodicals, in your business offices, in your home, and in the daily work-shop.
If we can learn from the mistakes, we can make our journey worthwhile and joyful. In the course of writing, I realized that that if I can contribute some meaning to the life of another, I am willing to take on the challenge. My only prayer is that this book be blessed by God to bring a positive change in the lives of the readers.
The book will be available on Amazon from June 2023 Month.

Q6) There is a large section of the youth who thinks of writing their solo book but lack the courage to do so. What is your advice to them ?
Ans.:-I strongly believe that this young generation holds the greatest hope of ending the stigma of fear of speaking out right things. Social media will be the most powerful weapon for this. Thoughts differ from person to person and everyone has its own thought process and way to express it. Many of us often fail to express this feeling but it really feels amazing when you express it. So just remember one thing which is also my favourite and all time inspiring quote is “You get in life what you have the courage to experience for.”
