Hello! Salam!

So, this is a Thank You note from my side! :D
In case you didn't get to know about it, "Not That Interested" WON A WATTY 2015 AWARD!! (Alhamdollilah!)

The category it won in, is Beginner's Luck.
(This sounds like something a seasoned champion might say to a rookie. I keep hearing it in Stallone's voice. Haha.)

Anyways, I'm forever indebted to all those readers and commenters who stuck by this imperfect collection of words. Thank You for the support! It humbles me. :) (On a side note: Can you tell me where in the world are you reading my story from? I always wanted to ask this question! LOL)

I went literally numb when I found out. Couldn't believe it! (Picture in description is proof of my numbness)
Note to self: DO NOT TYPE THANK YOU MESSAGES TO THE FOLKS AT WATTYS, WHEN YOU'RE GROGGY WITH SLEEP AND GIDDY WITH JOY.

I think my characters are having a celebratory party at the moment.Mina has learned a new dance move for the occasion (she whips, and then she Nae-Naes).

(JBTW Kulsoom Nani is convinced that she invented the Nae Nae during a physical therapy session, for her gout, and "That singer fellow stole the move from me. It must've been leaked by that therapist. Most shady character, he has the most peculiar nail-shape....")

EMV thinks we won because everyone loves Her. EMV also convinced Shehzer to pray Shukrana (Prayer of Thanks), on her behalf. Around 50 Rakats. No biggie.

Inaya might just have decorated Simba's fur with glitter glue and finger paints...

Let's leave them in peace for now! :D

~I dedicate this win to the victims of violence across the world. Beirut. Syria. Paris. Palestine. Iraq. Pakistan. Rohingya...
We all bleed the same way don't we?
This one's for peace. And for the sanctity of human life.~

-E.
