The years we spend growing up play a crucial role in building up the foundation of our thoughts, and our beliefs in the upcoming adulthood we are venturing into.
Born into a family that all supported the art and literature, who would have known that one day, she would herself become a writer and would receive the prestigious Tata Literature Live! Book of the Year Award - Fiction (2020), the author of the Book "Prelude to a Riot", Annie Zaidi shares with us her journey as a writer with Storizen & we also discuss her latest release, City of Incident.
EVOLUTION AS A WRITER
Born & brought up in a tiny place with no access to cinemas or restaurants, Annie was not devoid of reading books.
"Reading was the one thing that was not interrupted in my life. I grew up in a tiny place without access to restaurants or cinemas or even public transport. My mother ensured a steady supply of books. I wrote some essays and debate speeches in school but had no literary ambition. It was only in college that I realized that I was perhaps good with words and decided to train as a journalist, so I could continue writing in one form or another," she says.
