Grandma in the Stars
Ayesha lost her Nani-maa to the pandemic two years ago.
With summer just beginning, she’s already missing her Nani and her home in Delhi, which she used to visit this time of year.
But this summer promises to be unlike any other.
Ayesha’s best friend, Shreya, plans to make her smile again.
She shares a story of an adorable calf named ‘Chatur’ and invites Ayesha to spend time with him. Chatur is born to Leela, a friendly white cow, at Shreya’s Nani house in Nashik. Ayesha is captivated by Chatur’s story and can’t wait to meet him.
However, she soon discovers that Chatur is not just an ordinary calf but her companion to a place among the stars where she finally reunites with her Nani-maa!

Testimonials
Very informative and valuable 4 -day session. I really enjoyed it . The techniques shared to practice writing and overcome writer’s block were interesting. Dr. Sneha is a great presenter and delivered her sessions effectively.
Found the workshop helpful in many ways in regards to understanding author’s mindset and approach towards writing.
Especially liked the coverage on:
1. Book Analysis
2. Story writing and prompts to set you thinking.
Commendable delivery style of facilitator.
Dr. Sneha has credible knowledge in domain of creative writing which she doesn’t hold back in the workshop.
Wishing her all the best and hoping to join more such workshops by her.
I have always been an avid reader. And like most readers, also an avid daydreamer. I would dream up some good content but always felt that the way I write is not good enough.
A while back, I came across Mrs. Sneha’s invitation to attend a writer’s workshop. I know her from Toastmasters and have always enjoyed her creative and engaging speeches. I thought it could be a good opportunity to learn from an expert, maybe improve on my writing skills, and if not anything, it could be just a fun weekly class to interact with people. The workshop proved to be all of it.
Each class triggered my will to write more, experiment more. Right from day one, we got into the creative bubble. With small fun activities, interesting exercises, it kept on pushing the frame of perspective in all directions. Along with teaching technicalities, Sneha ma’am kept familiarizing us with different authors and their wisdom throughout the workshop. By the end, it put a whole new spin on my hobby of reading, as I learned to ‘read like a writer ‘. And now I have an available pathway that could be walked on to ‘write like a writer’!
Highly interactive , well structured workshop. Sneha has the art to bring out the best reading & writing skills in every person.
I am so glad that I came across this workshop for Creative Writing , it was so insightful and helped me to understand different aspects..I am looking forward for such sessions.
