ANWESHA

Anwesha is a 15 year old teenage girl trying to figure out what the hell she wants in life. She’s a sort of poetry—public speaking—drama fusion who wants to go into medicine? At the ripe hours of one in the morning, you’ll find her scribbling paragraph on paragraph into her notes app.  Over-thinker, overdo-er, people-pleaser and forever mushroom-hater (it’s literally a fungi). 

Anwesha is from and has been halfway across the world, and now finds herself, for better or for worse, unable to stray far from the coasts of Sydney and her Indian roots. Her writing has been featured for small- scale events such as Little Stories Big Ideas, Lambing Flat writing and Write the World. But despite her art on paper, she finds herself lost for words at time.
