Featured Interview With Sivakumar Kannan
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
Hi, I’m Sivakumar Kannan, the founder of Wise Books International. I was raised in Chennai, India, where I still live with my family. No pets yet, but I do love dogs! I create books that mix fun, learning, and creativity — everything I wish I had growing up.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I’ve always been curious and loved books that made me think differently. But I really got hooked in my twenties when I discovered personal development and non-fiction. I started writing seriously during the pandemic, combining my interests in marketing, activities, and self-growth.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I enjoy reading James Clear, Naval Ravikant, Alex Hormozi, and Tim Ferriss. My favorite genre is self-help with a practical twist — anything that makes me take action right away. I’m inspired by authors who simplify complex ideas and give you real tools to grow.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book is Would You Rather? Holiday Edition. It’s packed with over 300 funny, tricky, and sometimes spooky questions built around holidays like Christmas, Halloween, and Thanksgiving. It took around 3 weeks to write and was a blast to create! Perfect for families, kids, and even couples who want to laugh and bond over silly choices and unexpected twists.
