Stories have their own quiet revolutions.

Some are whispered in small rooms, some are sculpted in solitude — and a few are nurtured into existence by those who believe that words, even when silenced, find their way back to light.

My guest in this episode is one such believer — writer, editor, and literary catalyst Sucharita Dutta-Asane.

Her stories, from 'Cast Out' to 'These Tongues That Grow Roots', travel through the unmapped territories of memory, exile, and belonging.

As an editor at Red River Story, she’s also helping a new generation of writers find their voice — and their courage.

In this episode, we talk about sculpting stories rather than butchering them, about the delicate art of editing, and about the quiet wars that shape her fiction.This podcast series is brought to you by Red River, which is the premier independent publisher of poetry and stories, and Uncut Poetry, which is the immensely popular poetry podcast of original poetry.
