About
Rohtash is a writer with a lifelong love for words and stories. His debut poetry collection, “Year of the Dog”, explores themes of renewal after difficult years and a near-fatal health scare. When the day after felt like a lease on a new life, he started looking for hope in small things, which came together as a collection. When he is not writing, he spends time with a small family with a big heart, going on long walks and in the company of friends.
Why do I write
The heart of the world is so tiny and soft, and darkness is so complete. It is so easy to forget our noble dreams that every child is born with and get lost in big ambitions when we only have a moment together. A heart needs courage to forgive. Stories help us get there. I write for a world where things can change: where friends are sorry for a day they don’t get to spend with you, every face in the crowd is waiting on someone, and when they look at you, they know. I write for days when longing is preserved for people, not things.
I write because words are magic, and there are people waiting on a miracle.
