Hi! I’m Dhriti, and I write stories because my brain has too many ideas, and if I don’t let them out, they start doing cartwheels in my head. It’s a serious problem. Scientists should probably study me.

I love stories with unexpected twists—One minute, a character is eating a sandwich; the next minute, they’re fighting a talking octopus. Who knows? Not me!

When I’m not writing, I’m busy with very important activities like staring at the ceiling, losing my pen for the 57th time, and wondering why my snack disappeared when I ate it. I also spend a lot of time thinking about deep things, like: If I drop soap on the floor, is the floor clean or is the soap dirty
