#286: Journeys from Home
Hello, writers! I’m Sohini Ghose — an internationally published author (with Macmillan and Rupa) and an editor who has lived and worked across India, the United States, and now Canada.
I’ve become fascinated by how journeys away from home can transform us. They’ve definitely shaped me into an editor with a global perspective — one who has had the privilege of collaborating with Big 5 publishers, indie presses, and award-winning authors (including a Nobel Prize winner), helping to bring over 300 books to life. You can check out my Reedsy profile here.
Stepping outside our comfort zones, whether physically or creatively, can unlock powerful insights and spark new ideas. I hope the prompts below inspire you to explore the emotional and transformative aspects of traveling from home — how it can strengthen (or strain) relationships, illuminate your past, and open doors to possibilities you never imagined.
Wherever your writing takes you, remember: you have a unique voice, so celebrate it. Safe travels on the page!
