Namaste India!

Welcome to Writers Adda, a space where we sit down for a chat with some of the gems of the Indian Writing Community and get candid with them about their journey on Wattpad.

Joining us this time is ThatPinnalPonnu.

But before we get started, check out the first 250 words of their Desi Indian story, "Mutual Denial," on our AmbassadorsIN Stories Anthology.

ThatPinnalPonnu:

Genres: Fantasy, Horror, Thriller; Writers: J. K. Rowling, Ruskin Bond, Sujatha

ThatPinnalPonnu: Happenstance brought me to Wattpad and wondering about the what-ifs while reading other stories persuaded me to start writing on this platform.

ThatPinnalPonnu: I write in English although I add a couple of Easter Eggs in between in my mother tongue—Tamil. It brings my story a little close to home, personally, for me.

ThatPinnalPonnu: Not really. Although inspiration does tend to strike hard when my exams are nearing.

ThatPinnalPonnu: My storyline is very much inspired by what I have seen and experienced in the real world, in my real life.

ThatPinnalPonnu: Author Meera Sharma (Livin2Write). I wish we could create a comic, relatable, Desi story.
