“One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.”
An award-winning book blogger, an adwoman, a poet, Asha is a story-teller at heart. She is a born reveur, a rebel seeking refuge in the realm of words. She reads, writes, and reviews. When not doing these, you'll find her baking, swimming, or talking to dogs. Literary Influencers: Leo Tolstoy, Charles Bukowski, Jhumpa Lahiri, Daphne du Maurier.
