Between Fact & Fiction: Kiran Manral on Storytelling, Feminism & Writing in the Age of AI | Ep 33

She has written 18+ books across fiction, non-fiction, thrillers, sci-fi, humour, and horror.
She has interrogated power, feminism, authorship, and cultural memory long before AI made it fashionable.
And quietly (deliberately) she has shaped how India tells its stories on the page, on stage, and behind the scenes.

🎙️ This week on ‪@youareaforce_podcast‬
Meet #KiranManral award-winning author, journalist, TEDx speaker, founder of The Story Company India, and host of ‪@ChasingCreativityKiranManral‬ and ‪@NotYourAuntyPodcast‬ for a conversation that goes far beyond writing.

We talk about:
🔥 Why most books disappear within months and what makes a story endure
🔥 The Bestseller Paradox in a world ruled by algorithms
🔥 Feminism beyond slogans as lived, written, and resisted
🔥 And the unglamorous, rarely spoken-about reality of being an author

This is not a “how to write” episode.
This is a how to think, create, and claim authorship over your life conversation.

Because storytelling isn’t just craft.
It’s power. Memory. Resistance. Legacy.
