Teertha Anil

The author is an ambitious, out of place, chronic daydreamer. Her name is Teertha and she is 22 years old. She is from God’s Own Country - Kerala but at times feels particularly godless. She has struggled with her mental health for almost five years now, though it has in no way affected her passion for life.

She prefers to be called ‘distinct’, not ‘different’. She has very recently developed a love for English classical literature and Milky Bar. She has dabbled with love, the ceremony of getting a college degree, and of course with being society’s idea of perfection and has failed miserably in all of them.

Now, she is grappling with living and in doing that happily. And so far, so good.
