1.5 to 2 hours in the early morning and it often depends on my mood and the rush of thoughts in my mind.

What words of wisdom would you like to give to aspiring writers?

Firstly go with the flow. Before writing, don’t create a Frame work in your mind, let your imagination fly and find its own destination. We should never tie or chain our thoughts. Be original, copying someone will only hurt the writer inside you, you might be successful but then you won’t be contended. Satisfying the Soul of a writer with food of original thoughts is most important.
