Tell us about your journey of becoming an author and poet.
It all started when I found it difficult to write a poem for an assignment. Slowly, I got comfortable and even started to love writing poems. I have now written over 400 poems, I have published three books till now: ‘The Blooming of Flowers’, ‘Rainbow in the Sky’, and ‘Life of Lovely Lucida’.
Tell us about your latest book.
My latest book ‘Life of Lovely Lucida’ is my take on how life must be led. It revolves around Lucida’s childhood and how she turns into an eminent personality. The book is a fusion of poetry and prose. I am also working on my fourth book, which is based on saving nature for a better future. Through my environmental poetry, I aim to make the world a better place to live in.
How was the experience of publishing?
Publishing books require two, main aspects: consistency and motivation. Additional skills such as creativity and thinking out-of-the-box are also essential. The poems are written for creating awareness and bringing mindset change among people.
How do you manage your time among writing, school work, and your childhood?
Passion may drive a person to get any work done. I spend my nights pondering about my poems. After practice and writing numerous poems, it comes easily to me now.
What aspects do you think create a difference in the world?
I believe nature is our parent and we should treat it respectfully. Through my podcast The Extraordinary World on Earth I aim to spread environmental awareness. I have also written several articles on saving the Earth, and they have been published in various newspapers, magazines and on websites. My mission is to create a better world.
