05 Feb, 2023INTERVIEW WITH THE MAA:YU CREATIVE MOTHERS & DAUGHTERS
A few days ago I went to interview the ladies of the Maa:yu Creative Creation team in readiness for writing an article about their enterprise, its origins, and how they see themselves and their company in the context of Nepali society and norms. It proved to be an unexpectedly lively and interesting time, during which we discussed not only their products but also issues of women’s empowerment. In the photograph are (from L to R) the founding mother, Meera Shakya, daughter Samasty, and her daughter, 8-month old Smitasya Meera. If you are interested in finding out more about their products, please check out their website www.maayu.com.np or email them at maayu.creative[a]gmail.com

31 Jan, 2023WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!
It’s a great step forward for me, as someone who is more than a little IT-challenged, to finally have my own website. Creating it, indeed finding the right team to create it, was not easy but at last it is up and running. There is still much to be done to make it an enjoyable experience for readers to browse the pages and learn more about me, my writing and my life. Keep a look out for updates!
