As a part of Penmancy’s PenKonnect Series, I hosted a session with renowned authors, Avanti Sopory and Supriya Newar. Watch for tips on writing about cityscapes and capturing their diverse culture.
Kashmir being her first love, author, educator and trainer, 𝗔𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶 𝗦𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘆 wrote Catching The Fading Ray. In her second book titled The Kashmir That Was, Avanti brought forth the by-gone times when Kashmir was romanticized. Her third book titled Ancient and Lost Temples of Kashmir, is a narration of the ruined and desolate temples of Kashmir. Avanti has been a part of various anthologies, and her opinion pieces are published in Jammu based “Daily Excelsior”, “Women’s Web”, “Madras Courier”, and “Early Times”. She is a fellow at ‘The Way of Writing with Natalie Goldberg’.

A versatile professional, she wears several hats of an author, multi-lingual poet, communications specialist and music aficionado, all with consummate ease and an infectious passion. She has clocked over two decades in steering noteworthy brands and led teams. She continues to be attached with a clutch of firms as a consultant and an Independent Director.
