Welcome to my writer’s blog
A notebook of thoughts, inspiration and ideas, collected by me, Huma Qureshi
A library of my writing thoughts and inspiration; everything I love and that fills my well of creativity. Here, I post film and book reviews, share my love of interiors and write personal essays about my writing process and everyday life. I also go behind the scenes as a published writer, sharing my experience of writing short stories, memoir and novel writing, and offering my writing advice.
Storytelling through interiors
it’s taken me a long time to figure out how to bring my love for interiors together with my writing, and my love for books. I used to think the two had to be kept separate but I now l no longer do.
Here’s what I’ve learnt about storytelling through interiors
A writer’s room
I’ve always been intrigued by seeing where authors write. I’m the sort of person who likes to glimpse through windows when I’m walking down the street, because I like to see how other people live. But more than that, I feel that writers’ rooms reveal something of the individual writing process, whether those rooms are intimate spaces or not. I always find the writing process so fascinating, the way it shows the inner workings of our minds, sometimes without us even realising it.
