Podcasting in India | 11 year old Abhieshri, a published author with Arisudan Yadav

The voice says 11 years old. And the words, ages of wisdom. Meet Abhieshri a publisher – poetry and prose writer. When asked for advice on how to get started with writing she says – “don’t write all the good parts at once, spread them out” and “write what you want to read”. Don’t hear this because she is a cute 11-year-old, but listen for how she has gone about writing her stories and nurturing those characters. Listen here.
