Good books take time. Was invited to write for an anthology two years ago; it is finally taking shape. To be a creative writer, apart from talent and a strong voice, you need patience. Lots of it.

I have done my best to serve humour in its various hues. Madly in love with these stories by writers from eight countries. Big thanks to the contributors, the artist (Mr. Prakash Thombre), and @schahm ma'am at @BareBonesLLP. THE BARE BONES BOOK OF HUMOUR releases Jan 2026.

I have had to send a lot of rejections, some to writer friends of mine. And I am amazed to see them still supporting me and this project. Writing is subjective. A heart in the right place is what makes you count. Makes you last. Thank you, guys. You're beautiful. 🙏

Interestingly the narration is laced with humour at some places! The Arif character in Red Lungi, A Taste of Heaven, and The Arabic Teacher and Gobi Manchuri have prominent streaks of humour. #readingcommunity

Work begins on 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘉𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘰𝘧 𝘏𝘶𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘳... How's this to set the mood?
‘Black Cobras’ in the book ‘Heart Lamp’ is fiercely written. There is a strong force in each sentence in the last section. The vengeance rising in the women’s veins and reaching their heads is strikingly unforgettable! #readingcommunity

This is an evocative collection. The narration is vibrant, capable of both lifting your spirit and shattering it into pieces. A very stimulating read about women by a woman, also appreciate the diligent translation. #heartlamp #readingcommunity
