SRINAGAR, July 25: An 18-year old girl from Pampore has authored a poetry collection deliberating over different aspects of life.
The book named the ‘Nimble Kingdom-a kingdom of my emotions’ talks about various phases or points of one’s life in the form of poetry-which the author has tried to weave in her way.
A science student, Mir Arieba currently studies at Muslim Education Institute (MEI), Pampore in Class 12 and is aspiring to become a writer one day.
“I am basically in two minds about what I want to become, with writing being my passion and my subjects being science, somewhere, deep down, becoming a writer is all that I want,” she said.
The book-which she terms as a small one-has a print run of 51 pages and has been published by Inkart Publishers.
Arieba said that she wanted to know the feedback from the people and that was the reason she started with a small collection-assembled-and was written for some time.
She said that writing has been her hobby since she was in 5th grade and has been writing around since then. “I don’t know how that was, but I kept writing,” she said.
Arieba is working on her novel which she said will take some more time.
Regarding the theme of her upcoming novel-she said that the novel has a plot which revolves around life. “It is a story inspired by life,” she said.
She lives in a joint family and said that her parents never forced her to choose her career as per their wishes and that she had all the freedom in that regard.
With sticking to what one wants to achieve being her prime mantra, she said one should not aim for perfection; rather one should stick to the ground and be honest. “We have to keep doing it and the rest will follow,” she said.
