Story Behind The Book
On the Silk Road to Love: The Fiction book of Facts is the product of two journeys and the two I met in these journeys; a dream journey which introduced to me Tipotaki; and a life journey which introduced me to 'her'.
It was not that long ago that I woke up and somewhere between the dream world and what we refer to as reality I met Tipotaki and I learnt about tipotakians. Meeting its reality, I was so excited and edged that I was doubtlessly determined to write my whole next book on Tipotaki and how they are not a person but a superpower that is at the same time a parasite of sleeping minds.
But then I met her and what we experienced together and the stories she shared took control of the book and sod tipotaki's secret under its veil to bring into life a read worth your smile, your tears, your pondering, and hopefully your praise.
