Featured Interview With Jai Prakash Acharya
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I am Jai Prakash Acharya from New Delhi, India, and a graduate of English Literature from University of Delhi, I find deep fulfilment in exploring the complexities of the human condition through the power of words. A dedicated reader and writer, I am passionate about using my writing to connect with others and share insights on the world around us. I currently contribute to various news outlets and magazines.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I began writing in high school, but it was during my time at the University of Delhi that I truly discovered the power of words to express myself. I realised that actions alone often fall short in conveying complex thoughts and emotions. I find great satisfaction in employing the power of words to describe human conditions and their environments, striving to accurately portray the intended image to the reader.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Literature, particularly Indian literature, has profoundly shaped my perspective. From Premchand and Aravind Adiga to Chetan Bhagat, Grant Cardone, the Bhagavad Gita, and the works of APJ Abdul Kalam, these influential voices have significantly impacted my life.
I am passionate about reading, both fiction and non-fiction. I am a keen observer of my surroundings and enjoy writing about them, particularly focusing on human conditions.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My recent publication, ‘The Weathering Tree: Finding Hope in Hardship,’ is a short story about Ankush, an ambitious young man in Delhi, who faces a sudden upheaval when his father mysteriously disappears. Each encounter in the story reveals new layers of meaning unique to the reader.
