New Delhi [India], August 29: In a remarkable literary debut, seasoned journalist Eetika Kapoor unveils her fantasy anthology, My Dear Sensei, offering readers a whimsical journey through the realms of imagination. The book is dedicated to all teachers—the guiding lights who mold innocent souls into virtuous beings, shaping character and intellect with care and wisdom. This dedication underscores Kapoor’s deep respect and gratitude for educators who have played a significant role in her life and the lives of countless others.

Syed Arshad, CEO and Founder of BlueRose Publishers, congratulates Eetika Kapoor on the publication of My Dear Sensei. He emphasizes the crucial role of promotional activities in helping authors connect with their audience and explore the vast world of literature on a deeper level. “This book is more than just a debut; it is a tribute to the teachers who have shaped minds and hearts across generations,” Arshad notes.

Eetika Kapoor, who has previously made her mark in prestigious publications such as The Times of IndiaAsia Financial, and Business Insider, transitions from her role as a journalist to a storyteller with this anthology. My Dear Sensei holds a special place in her heart as it marks her first foray into the world of fiction. The book is not merely a collection of stories but a tribute to twelve fictional teachers across timelines and centuries, each character embodying the timeless wisdom and nurturing spirit of educators.

Kapoor, who hails from Varanasi and was shaped by her eight-year stint at Mussoorie’s Oak Grove School, reflects on how her upbringing and education laid the foundation for her multifaceted creativity. Her academic pursuits at Indraprastha College for Women and the Asian College of Journalism in Chennai further fueled her passion for storytelling.

Reflecting on her journey, Kapoor shares, “It feels surreal and magical. To have something in your head for so long and then see it out on the stands in front of you? Dedication and hard work pay off. But for me, this is just the beginning of a beginning.”

Kapoor’s journey was not without its challenges. At the tender age of nineteen, she tragically lost her parents, thrusting her into a world of uncertainty. Yet, with the unwavering support of her Maasi, Pushpa Mehra, and her cousins, she found the courage to pursue her dreams. She credits her teachers at Sunbeam Varuna School for nurturing her love for writing and journalism, which eventually led to the creation of My Dear Sensei.

Beyond her literary pursuits, Kapoor finds joy in music, karaoke, and fostering a community of book lovers in Delhi. Her eclectic interests, ranging from exploring museums to savoring diverse cuisines, enrich her storytelling with a unique depth and richness.

Looking ahead, Kapoor is eager to explore new creative horizons, including speculative fiction, historical fiction, and storytelling through illustrations. She promises readers an ever-expanding universe of imagination to delve into.

In words of encouragement to aspiring writers, Kapoor also advises“Don’t feel threatened. There is more than enough for everybody. Traditional or self-publishing, if your story has mettle, you will find a way to make it sell well.”

Syed Arshad, alongside the BlueRose Publishers team, echoes Kapoor’s sentiments, highlighting that the publication of My Dear Sensei is a testament to the collaborative efforts of authors and publishers alike in bringing captivating stories to readers worldwide.

As readers embark on the enchanting journey of My Dear Sensei, Kapoor’s narrative voice resonates, echoing the timeless wisdom imparted by teachers through the ages. This debut anthology stands as a tribute to the transformative power of imagination and the enduring influence of mentors.

Review: The book has also garnered praise from well-known author Ankur Warikoo, who commended the depth and creativity of Kapoor’s storytelling.
