Hello, I’m Huma.

I’m an award-winning author and I teach creative writing through self-paced studies and occasional small-group workshops, designed to feel thoughtful and unpressured and to be taken gently, alongside a busy life.

Writing, for me, is first and foremost a pleasurable pursuit and I made these studies for people who want to write seriously, but gently.

Three self-paced studies, offering different ways into the work of writing.

  • Postcards Home

    A six-part introduction to personal life writing.
