Speaking on the occasion, Chitreshwar Sharma said that he was interested in writing since childhood but could not give much attention due to unfavorable condition of his family and added that instead he was compelled to take up painting job as a source of income.
The writer informed that the turning point of his career came when he received an offer for cover design for books written by various writers.
''During that course, I got an opportunity to meet with some of the famous writers.
Drawing inspiration from them, I decided to enter the world of writing again,'' he added.
