I teach alongside clinical psychotherapist Kalpana Tanwar because I believe character depth comes from understanding human behavior, not just grammar. We ditch the traditional classroom setup for role-play and deep dives that actually change how you write, moving past surface-level storytelling. ### Our Philosophy What sets BWW apart is the community. We started in coffee shops and grew into a space where strangers become friends and writers become family. I run these workshops to help you stop being a serial first-drafter and actually finish what you start. Whether it is our creative writing sessions or the deep-dive psychology workshops, we focus on raw, honest work. ### The Expert Approach I bring my own experience as a published author, but I also rely on Kalpana’s clinical expertise to help you break down power dynamics and psychological archetypes in your fiction. We keep it small, personal, and intense. ### Why You Will Fit In If you are looking to find your writing voice while finding a tribe that cheers for your wins, you are in the right place. We are serious about our stories and even more serious about the support we offer each other. If you are ready to get uncomfortable, do some real work, and come out seeing your characters in a new light, join us this Sunday. ## About Bhumika Anand I am Bhumika Anand, and I run BWW not as a school, but as a space where stories and people evolve. I’m a writer first, and my work, like my story Fidelity, shows my love for the messy, complex human side of things. I’m here to guide you, critique your drafts, and help you find your people.
