About

Hello readers,

I am Sonali Sharma and I was born in Bhopal. I am a Commerce Graduate and a Certified Yoga Instructor. I discovered my interest in writing and hence started working on it since then.

I keep posting articles on self help this website and brief contents on her Instagram handle. Her writing includes long stories 

I’ve written the e-book Achieving Milestones and I keep posting on my website too.

The Writer’s Story

Since childhood, the thought of becoming a writer had never surfaced in my brain. I always feel God has blessed us with ample energy. We just need to realize how to employ it in the right direction.

I was unaware of my writing skills until a friend, asked me to take writing on a professional journey.

I was fighting with depression and used to write short stories which helped me in letting out my feelings flow. Writing in my lows became my habit. It proved the best stress buster ever.

Somewhere in my heart, I wanted to be an author for fictional works. But I had always prevented that feeling from escaping my subconscious mind. I wasn’t even honest to myself. My fear kept reminding me Sonali it’s just like a random teenager career thought. I was afraid to take the risk. Hence, I always ignored it thinking it as a random thought.

My story of becoming a writer is not a spicy one. It’s a story with a common taste.  I wrote around twelve short stories for a website. I posted the first one in September 2017. Apart from this, I had written many poems and small articles and had posted them on different sites, which faded away by time from my achievements. Because they were done just to ensure the flow of my emotions.

The continuous fall in my academic graph exhausted me. I was aware of my mistakes subconsciously but my depression didn’t allow me to work on it. We just think of depression like insomnia, suicidal desires, etc. but its much more in daily life.

You don’t want to meet anyone, you like rooms filled with darkness, you even forget to cry, you don’t want to leave the bed. You even forget to have food and drink water sometimes. I never had insomnia, in fact, I used to oversleep. I lost my self-esteem.

Depression is not because of one reason. Its a combination of several feelings and thoughts, buried deep inside someone right from their birth. I am still healing.

This has wasted my two years. I was continuously failing in my academics and my career. I read the Alchemist and honestly, the book has made a great impact on my life. My suppressed desire of becoming a writer bloomed up. 

Of course, it was never easy. My writing skills were raw and didn’t match the work of others. I struggled in reading books, writing even 200 words a day, building up knowledge, building up confidence, regaining the self-esteem and much more. There were flaws in my writings. It was really hard to force myself out of my comfort zone and put my efforts and energy in the desired direction.

The improvement included a lot of efforts for both reading and writing. I was unable to keep myself motivated for writing. I frequently faced writer’s block.

Though I found some ways. I try to spend some time in solitude listening to music. Or else, I spend time in nature to let my brain cleanse itself and think peacefully. This is how I am trying to grow daily as a writer.

My life apart from writing

I have learnt classical singing for six years. Apart from this I practice yoga daily. Infact I’m an avid follower of Yoga. I love to  learn something new always in Yoga and practice hard to keep improving my Yoga postures.

I’m a huge Bollywood fan and I try not to miss a movie. Also, I love to dance.

Academically, taxation, law and accounting are the areas of my interest.
