Mehreen Kaur is a 13-year-old from Noida who lives between many worlds: Kathak, freestyle and hip-hop, swimming, and a serious love of fantasy fiction.

A self-declared foodie, she writes warm, surprising stories with heart. Writers who move between that many disciplines tend to bring an unusual sense of rhythm and timing to the page, and Mehreen does.

Her story appears in Whispers of Many Worlds, our newest anthology. It is warm, and it does not go where you expect.
