Interview With Author Vikram Sethi
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have written a series of books and the first one “Quit Drugs, Like Me!” is up for publishing
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
“Quit Drugs, Like Me!” is a compelling journey of triumph over adversity. It’s a story of resilience, determination, and the courage to break free from the clutches of addiction. This book delves into my personal experiences that mirror the struggles many face, and it offers a roadmap towards a healthier, brighter future.
Addiction affects countless lives, weaving its intricate web of challenges. “Quit Drugs, Like Me!” goes beyond being just another book—it’s a lifeline. It not only shares insights on overcoming addiction but also serves as a source of empowerment for those who seek change. It’s a testament that recovery is possible and that a fulfilling life awaits beyond the shadows of addiction.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I usually speak the first draft and then write it down for editing later.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I am a fan of self help books by many authors, but James Clear is my absolute favourite.

What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
This is my first book and I am still exploring new ideas.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
My advice is to just start today, don’t wait for the right time, right now is the right time. Look at me, I have fought procrastination to start writing (or should I say speaking because I generally speak my ideas and record them first) and now I have a series of books coming out!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
The best advice was to go in for personality development which ultimately transformed my entire life.
What are you reading now?
I am reading THE ALCHEMIST
