My name is Apoorv Anand.
I’m a 24-year-old student of M.A. in English.
Born and raised in Patna, Bihar
I love reading books, watching series and movies, playing badminton and creating my own literary pieces.
Here is my story.
As a child, I spent countless hours watching cartoons and reading storybooks, only to return to my notebooks and create my own versions of those tales—stories filled with heroes, villains, wars, and adventures. Even during my school years, English quickly became my favorite subject because it connected with the stories and worlds that fascinated me. Writers like Dickens, Shakespeare, and Robert Frost became familiar names early on.
At the same time, I remained deeply connected to translated works of Indian literature, particularly the writings of Premchand, along with sacred texts such as the Bhagavad Gita and the two great epics. These works have profoundly shaped my beliefs and my way of thinking. Literature, for me, has always been more than an academic pursuit. It is a way of understanding the world, questioning it, and sometimes gently reshaping it through words.
Like the works of Camus, Dostoevsky, Paulo Coelho, and George Orwell, my thoughts often dwell on the meaning of life—how it unfolds, the dangers that lie within it, and how one might navigate it with purpose and awareness.
Gradually, this curiosity led me to write my own stories, poems, and reflections. Many of these pieces emerge from lived experiences and quiet observations. My writing often explores themes of spirituality, the complexity of everyday life, and the subtle yet powerful currents of social change. I am particularly interested in how individuals grow within society—how faith, doubt, struggle, and hope shape our inner worlds.
In many ways, my stories and poems are reflections of the world around me. They speak of both good and difficult days, of ideas and beliefs that shape humanity, and sometimes of the small miracles of life that people often overlook.
I would not call myself a wise old man yet. Being in my twenties, I am still learning, unlearning, and rediscovering perspectives. I see the problems that exist in the world and try to understand their roots, examining them from different angles and thinking about how they might be addressed. Writing becomes my way of processing this journey.
Some of my pieces are introspective and meditative, while others question the structures, traditions, and norms we inherit. For me, there is still much to learn and experience. At the center of it all lies a constant desire to seek meaning—both personal and collective.
This blog is my space to reflect, experiment, and connect. Here, I share my work openly for readers to interpret in their own ways. Whether my words inspire, challenge, or simply accompany someone in their own reflections, I am grateful for every reader who stops by.
Welcome to my world.
