She has plans to compile a book of poetry along with a couple of novels in the foreseeable future, but in the meantime, she enjoys being in the background helping aspiring authors with their stories for publication.
“I love to read and I love even more the freedom that a pen and paper allows me to be!”...It is my escape to create the unimaginable through words. ”My thoughts and expressions usually flow much better when I’m writing…but knowing I cannot have conversations with people simply on paper, I’m approachable to talk to as well (lol)!”
Her most important role is shaping the minds of her two young men, Damaris and Dante, ages 12 and 5 respectively. Asha works to leave a legacy for the both of them. ”Our children are always watching what we do, so let us lead with purpose so that they will have the tools to lead us in the future!”
“I encourage you to take this journey with me as we strive to make Beautifully Said the magazine that allows us to encourage your best self . Tag…You’re it! Always remember to do something great just for you but never forget to pass that same energy along to others.” ~Blessings.
