I write the way I attempt life, one prompt at a time, one mess at a time and sometimes, all at once. Gurgling, giggling, sobbing; embracing each day as it comes. When there is no right way to do life or writing, the only way left is together.

I'm a Storyteller juggling stories between the spoken & written word. Former TV Journalist, turned Performance Storyteller, Trainer, Consultant & Coach, and a soon-to-be Children's Author, I am here to train my writer's muscle.

My personal Substack

Far from the madding crowd of Facebook and Instagram. Snippets, essays, lists, etc. about whatever catches my fancy.

A sack of stubs, a stub sack, a stack of subs, a substack

A place to pause and reflect

I write to educate myself about life. I share to not implode.

Extraordinary stories of ordinary lives

Stories, anecdotes, wise proverbs and foolish thoughts, literary musings, insights and conversations centred around my personal, unpublished notebooks

Nidhi's Substack

Decoding myself

My personal Substack

Picking up from a blog I wrote for several years, on this Substack, I present my musings about how cities are experienced and reshaped by people, capital, technology and ideas.

My personal Substack

Here you will find articles about faith, spirituality, family, psychology, as well as writing prompts, podcasts and videos. Come and engage in meaningful conversations dealing with our world and wellbeing.

If you look long enough, will it reveal itself? Experiments in looking and recording. Format agnostic -almost. At play with ideas, words and form. Here to swap stories just like we did when we were 5,6,7, ... lying on bellies, palms propping faces?

Brewing personal essays along with my filter coffee with feelings and funnies

Keeping up with the gender data gap (and whatever else takes my fancy).
