There
are a lot of creative people in this world and nowadays it is nice to see them
getting a platform to showcase their talent! Here are a few questions I asked
Dhruv Gajjar, the 23 year old author of “Keeping the Promises,” to understand
his thought process and discover what makes Dhruv different from others his
age!
Tell us something about yourself….
A
nerd who thinks he can tell good stories, and people have started believing
him. Just started though!
Story teller, dreamer and doctor - Where do you draw your
inspiration from?
Inspiration
is something u can't draw, imbibe or take for granted. It comes from within.
You need to take life as it comes and make a new beginning after every dark or mesmerizing
hour. You learn to inspire yourself after every setback; you just need an inner
will for that, which fortunately I have.
List three words that best describe you....
Religious-less,
guilt-less and judgement-less. Three grammatically incorrect, yet perfect words
to describe me. Imperfection often streams the right chord.
Which is your favorite song?
List
is too large, but certainly some are close to my heart for some reasons and
revealing them would be formatting a sequel to my book. Lol.
What are you reading these days?
Med
books. I'm not allowed to read anything else right now.
What is your guilty pleasure?
Scotch.
I'd call it neither guilty nor pleasure. I'd say... Solace; because some of the
memories I can only bear to remember under the solace of scotch.
How do you spend your time on a holiday/Sunday?
By
doing every possible thing that makes me happy.
Tell us about one thing that makes you happy….
In
others, compassion which I hardly find and in me, arrogance which I bet u'll
never find. Yes, in a way I'm never completely happy. Lol.
What is your favorite quote?
The
one that I wrote; which is gross and can be--like any religious quote--taken
positively or maliciously. “No one, not
even your God can write a perfect end for you; unless he's dying.”
If you were granted one wish what would you wish for and why?
I
don't believe in wishes. Let's say I've seen the dark face of it. I dream and
try to make them come true. If I fail, I try again and I keep trying until I
get there.
What are your future plans?
I
don't believe in plans, they don't work anyway.
What advice do you have for budding authors?
Writers
never need advice; because the reason they are writers is that they have their
own thought process which should be expressed and nourished, but never tampered
with and experiences will make them learn what they need to. Every writer has
an ability to observe and learn.
