She was a very hyper child in middle school and to channel all the extra energy into something that would shape her as a person, her class teacher suggested that she start reading, the first books she read were Black beauty and Heidi, and since then there has been no looking back.
In the never-ending search for books, she realised that her father had an enormous collection of novels, and since then there was never a time she wasn’t reading.

Sherlock Holmes, Famous Five, Nancy Drew kindled an interest for mystery in her and before she reached the end of the book, she had already imagined a hundred different scenarios in her head.
Nivedha Srinivasan was very attached to her grandfather who was her best friend. Aren’t we all a little more attached to our grandparents? They have fought, laughed, and cried together. Dedicating her first book to her late grandfather is just the beginning of the long path of Nivedha.

While she spent day and night with PPE in the covid wards fighting for patients’ lives, her co-workers, her friends, and writing this book were her only form of relaxation. For her exemplary work in the Covid wards, she was recognised by the Indian medical association in 2021.

For her writing was never about deadlines or stories that got more approval ratings, it was about baring her soul on those pages, in the thought that some child somewhere will have a smile on their face after reading her book.

She was also recently in the Top 10 Short stories by both popular opinion and judging in a national competition organised by Hashtag Kalakar where 1000’s of stories were sent. Currently, Nivedha is working on a fantasy mystery novel for young adults and preparing for post-graduation.
