Why Do We Write? | J. M. Shaw

from Dear Paarijaat · host Mayank Gangwar

What if writing isn't just about telling stories, but about understanding yourself? J. M. Shaw and I talked about growing up creating imaginary worlds, finding the courage to publish, and how writing became a way to process life. We also explored identity, belonging, emotional resilience, and how her neurodivergent perspective shapes the worlds and characters she creates. Learn more about J.M.
