How I Write
Writers on their Craft
How I Write is a landmark collection of interviews with some of the most celebrated authors of our time. Among those featured are poets, novelists and non-fiction writers, but what they all have in common is that their work is deeply rooted in the South Asian experience. In intimate conversations with fellow authors, these acclaimed practitioners of the art of writing talk about how they turned their love of books into a career, the challenges they faced, and what their creative process looks like.
Inspiring and insightful, this volume is a must-read for anyone curious about the art of writing and the lives of those who practise it.
How I Write was created by South Asia Speaks, a literary fellowship programme empowering outstanding emerging writers from South Asia.
Mira’s contribution to this anthology features interviews with Suketu Mehta and Vinod Jose.
