A wonderful book reading of WILD CAPITAL and workshop at the lovely @ChampacaBooks in Bengaluru!
We also went through the process of illustrating books - in this case watercolours - and readers made their own.

A bulbul came to their garden when this little girl was 1. Her father painted it for her, now 4, at our book reading.
Heart-warming!

good books, good coffee, good conversation. the holy trinity with my bro here @anubhavitis
How does something fleeting stay? A line, a memory, a passing thought. And how does it begin to take shape as a story?
Three lines become four. A small shift, but something opens up. A rhythm, a direction, a possibility you hadn’t quite seen before.
This workshop sits right there, in that moment of expansion. Over two hours, Naveed and Pankaj will share how they work with fragments and follow them into fuller forms, how stories gather weight, and how they sometimes surprise you.

Along with the Champaca Bookshop, I am curating a science fiction book box + book club.
Six months, six books, over three themes: climate fiction, space opera, and classics revisited.
Details in screenshots + link to book box in tweet below. 👇🏼
Picture books are not just for children. They hold entire worlds of memory, emotion, and imagination, where text and image come together in ways that stay with you.
We’re back with the fourth edition of Worlds for Everyone!
Worlds for Everyone is an 8-week online course for adults to read 12–16 picture books, sit with them, and explore how they shape the way we see and feel.
