Varsha Seshan-Episode 10 (English)

Literary Gupshup-Pune's first literature podcast

At the age of seven, Varsha Seshan discovered she wanted--and could be--a writer. Since then, there has been no looking back. She wrote through her college years at Junior Herald, the children's supplement of Maharashtra Herald, where over 20 stories of hers were published. The budding writer has now blossomed into a confident author for children who has published a book of short stories for children titled The StoryCatcher and a series of illustrated books for children on the Indian Railways. Varsha will now speak at the Asian Festival of Children's Content in Singapore to be held between May 25-29 2017. Along the way, Varsha has gone through more than her fair share of rejections but the love of writing never waned. The hardest thing, as per her, is to promote your book especially as a writer for children. She is also a trained Bharatnatyam dancer.
