So which one is your favourite Nano Tale?

For us at The Uncommon Box, it was quite a task to choose! All are our favourites. The dexterity with which this amazing writer has combined the world of thought and feeling is fantastic! Read about her in her own words, which is as inspiring as her tales.

About the writer in her own words:

I was born in Mauritius but have recently shifted to Australia for my studies. I am doing a double major in English literature & creative writing and Media & Communications at Monash University.

From a very young age, I had the ambition to be a writer. As a teen, I used to keep a diary and tried hard to make my poetry rhyme. But of course, I did not quite succeed in my attempt. My pen would always run out of words or collapse together and made little sense.

“I was too scared and insecure to ask someone else to help me form my own alphabets either. But I did not quit the attempt.”

I worked on it as much as I worked on myself as a person. It was only when I turned seventeen that I got my first chance to be published as a weekly article writer of the Mauritian Sunday Times Newspaper.

Writing to me is my essence. Many writers live to write but I write to live!”

When I wake up in the morning, what goes on in my mind is more about what I will write today and not about what I will have for lunch or breakfast. I have always been indecisive in my life. When people asked me what I wanted to be when I would grow up, I always hesitated to tell them that I wanted to be an author. After all, I was told by many that I was just an average girl going to a normal high school. For a while, I believed their words and stayed torn between what people had to say and what my heart was asking me to do.

“Until one day, I decided to fight the world, listen to my heart and show to everyone what it was like to be me.”

I covered my eyes and blocked my ears – I no more wanted to know what they had to say about me. I just followed each beat of my heart which resounded in poetry. My ambition and self- motivation eventually fought people’s doubt and took me to where I am today.

My writing is every inch of my soul. They are each part of me that I immortalize through each alphabet. If I do not write anything one day, I cannot sleep on the night that comes. To me, writing means to stand out of the crowd. It means to spread love and awareness – to make every individual recognize and realize that the emotions are normal.

They say books contain a whole world for the imagination or the remedy to a soul, likewise I somehow hope my words heal at least one broken heart through the mass of people.

 My father often reminds me that as a child, my hands used to quiver to write and that I was slow at learning. He often relates to me as to how he had to force me to even write the alphabet “A” on paper. But today he is proud cause the hands that he forced to write are now writing books without any pressure. My goal is to be a writer for a lifetime – to spread my words and love as much as I can to anyone who needs it at any time of the day.

“Advice and encouragement from others are definitely the fuel for my journey.”

Someone close recently told me: “I don’t think you still need to improve because you are not good enough. Instead I think you can still improve because you are too good for your age.” – With these in mind, I am still working my way up.
