What’s next for you?
Actually there are two books that I am currently considering. One is a novel about street children of Pakistan, a book that the protagonist is shown working on in Saffron Dreams and another is a young adult novel about an Indian teen torn between her passion for dancing and keeping the family business alive.

Excellent and informative interview. I'm in the midst of reading this book and I can't put it down. It certaintly puts things into a different perspective for anyone who has considered all Muslims to be people of violence.

"Saffron Dreams" is one of those novels that keeps rolling around in your mind for weeks after you read it. Although it's fiction, it could be anyone's story. Nice interview Shaila.

This looks like a book that once you start reading it, you can't wait until the next chapter and keep reading it on and on. Sounds great
