About the course instructor
Himali Kothari started writing five years ago because she wanted to be able to express her opinions without any interruptions. In the five years (and still counting) of her non-stop monologue she has written on travel, business & finance, food, design, architecture and general interest topics.

The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – which you’d thought special, particular to you. And here it is, set down by someone else, a person you’ve never met, maybe even someone long dead. And it’s as if a hand has come out, and taken yours.- From the film The History Boys
Here’s a small inquiry from NoticeBard:
Can a creative writing course actually help you in writing?
Well, some part of being a writer is innate. But we think a creative writing course can help you for 2 reasons:
1. In a structured program, you tend to write (and hopefully write a lot) and get useful feedback from both the peers and the instructor. That’s exactly how skills are improved; practice and feedback.
2. You are being taught by an expert. By someone who’s been there and done that. These people know where you can go wrong and how you can go right. Both of these make for critical information!
