About Me

Yup, that’s me – Wandering Soul Writer aka Piyusha Vir

A nomad at heart, who loves reading, traveling, and photography and now trying to combine them all in one lifetime.

I started (or rather, rediscovered my childhood love for) writing in November 2015, after I found myself out of a job and decided to go back to what I really like… hence, this blog to rediscover myself – an unsuccessful attempt, so far.

I had started this blog with the intention of becoming a travel blogger but, as always, got distracted. I now focus on writing fiction (which no one reads) and some random non-fiction (which no one cares about).

I am also a CELTA-certified English Language trainer (from the British Council/University of Cambridge).

I am one of 29 authors in an anthology of satirical short stories titled ‘Mock, Stalk & Quarrel‘; and the solo author of a short story collection titled ‘Just Another Day‘ – both published by Readomania.

Happy Reading!

  5. The name of your blog appeals to me. Once in my life I’ve been a wandering soul. Thank God I’ve found my haven and life haven’t been this happy. I admire the way you describe yourself, I wish I can make such good introduction about myself. I’m working on it though. I’ll be checking your posts whenever I have time.

  6. The name Derek Shepherd jumped out of the text and by then, I’m yours. Hahaha.

  7. I love finding new blogs to follow! I love your fresh and fun voice, and your curiosity about life in every form. And we have a connection-my current hoodie of choice states “not all those who wander are lost”. Great stuff here, thank you.

  13. Well, it seems like we share a lot of interests! I do enjoy very much traveling, writing and photography as well, but I do not share your love Derek Shepard, so he’s all yours 😉 I do love your humour, though. It makes your posts so light and fun to read!

    2. It is a great option although can be competitive..all of types of jobs is like that anyway…they need writers there…you can also try transcribing if English is your first language…May you be blessed in your journey 🙂

    1. That’s so kind of you. Thank you so much. Although I am hoping to get noticed here enough to not have to go back to a stifling job. Would like this to become a source of income ultimately. Shall keep turning to you for advice and guidance 🙂

    2. It is very hard to earn much income from blogging. You really have to find a niche market. But this is a good place to hone your skills and meet lots of others who may have a blog that does generate some income.
