I'm Mineetha, an IT professional in the transportation domain who's taken a detour into crafting stories instead of highways. Born in Kerala, I always dreamed of writing, but life had other plans. After navigating the ups and downs of my career, motherhood, and the inevitable empty nest syndrome, I found my way back to my first love—writing. Join me as I wander through this literary terrain. On the grand highway of life, sometimes the best stories are found at the unexpected exits! So buckle up – it's going to be quite a ride!
