My Substack friend, Raj Menon, was waiting for Rajiv Chopra to appear online from India to discuss his street photography and Indian history on Raj’s Marinade Mixr Substack Live Interview. While he was waiting for Rajiv, Raj invited me to join him and then mischievously put me on the spot. It’s amazing how if you aren’t given time to think about something, you do better when it isn’t meticulously preplanned and overthought. Especially if you don’t see or know what you be asked ahead of time. Raj is the perfect moderator asking great questions and adding his own India knowledge that makes for a better discussion. So here is the first unexpected 7-minute segment Marinade Mixr Substack Live interview about how I wrote my India novel, Myself Lost.
