City girl Surabhi, 23, has created a wave in
creative circles by writing her first collection of poetry, 'Nascent
Wings-a Public Endeavour'. The 93-page book is already available on amazon.com
as an e-book. Some of the poems in the book are emotional, some
motivational and some narrative. The book will soon be published by
Partridge Publishing House launched by Penguin Books India.
"It is my first book. Poetry is something that comes naturally to me. I
am not sure about the review the poems will get, but I am hopeful the
readers will definitely feel an emotional connect with all of them,"
Surabhi, working with a Delhi-based multinational publishing house told
TOI over phone. "This book offers its readers a platter of various
flavours. From serious societal issues to the tender nature of love,
from motivational verses to simple experiences, this book is a holistic
entity of significant poetry," she said.
Hailing from the state capital, she did her schooling from BR DAV
Public School, Begusarai, in Bihar. "I don't want to confine my writing
to a fixed genre. I am young and want to explore my creativity. I
believe that creative minds are not stagnant minds. They love to
experiment and explore. I started working on a novel when 'Nascent
Wings' got accepted at Partridge. I didn't want to wait. I don't want to
earn a lot of money, but yes, I want to be recognized as a writer. I will keep writing and strive towards perfection," Surabhi said.
Her grandpa S N Pandey is an educationist and father Sandip Pandey is a
doctor. Her schoolteacher, Amber Banerjee always encouraged all his
students to pursue their dreams.
"Taking up mass communication at the graduation level was not a random
choice. I have been actively participating in various writing and
oratory competitions since my school days. I have won several awards for
creative writing and oratory at school and college levels. I also
practise writing as a hobby,"
"My family's unconditional
support led to the birth of this book. 'Nascent Wings' is just the
beginning. I am working on the draft of my first fiction work and it has
reached the final stage. I plan to pursue writing as a full-time
profession," she said.
