Indian Reads… #1: Talking with Nina Sengupta about her book 'Edible Weeds and Naturally Growing Plants in Auroville'
This is a whole bunch of firsts, my first author interview, my first colouring book, the first colouring book from India,.. to name a few.
I set out with a lot of nervousness, I’d never interviewed someone before and this was to be over a telephone call. And what after the interview, I’ve not ever used editing software, how was I going to finish this. But baby steps I told myself and the result was so much fun.
I’ve enjoyed this so much I think I’m going to this again. Putting together questions, talking to Nina about her book and publishing experience, learning iMovie and actually using it, was an adventure and here’s the result.
Please do give it a listen and tell me what you think in comments? :)
In this interview Nina talks about -
- her life in Auroville
- why she choose the theme of weeds
- creating a colouring book
- her journey from an idea to publication
- themes and next books in the series
You can buy Nina's book at www.Auroville.com
