For making me feel I belong somewhere
I am sorry this isn’t about the podcast but I wanted to connect to you so badly for so long and I don’t care about anything now. First of all, ur voice is as beautiful as your words. I apologise in advance in case the note gets way too long but I have a lot unsaid which did not make sense. Am 15, from India, and have read three of your books. Hold Still, We are Okay and today completed Watch Over Me. Hold Still is my favourite of all. I didn’t know if words could just roll out and make you feel both happy and sad at the same time. The feeling I had after reading your books is not something I can articulate in words. Thereby, I might just go on repeating the same thing over and over again. That first book gave me chills. I dreamt of Ingrid in my dreams and it was so intense that I was screaming and crying. I was going through a very rough time in my life and the way the book resonated made me feel at ease. Ur handwritten notes between the book and the designing of the book is so gorgeous. And people call me stupid but I feel books have smell that narrate stories authors are too scared to share. Hold Still smelt like pain and it felt like heaven. Everybody around me kept on telling me how my feelings were invalid but ur books made me feel that there is something in the world which awaits me. There is something more beautiful behind all of the darkness I was soaked in. And at times when I am down I go and smell the book, read extracts of it and smile to myself. I desire to write like u. I hope one day I will meet you in person and give you one of my beat works. Btw I love to read and write. I even wrote my own book at the age of 14 named ‘Travelling Alone’. It isn’t too good but I feel we make mistakes in life and that’s okay. Hitting the bottom rock and getting up again is a part of life. Also, I started a podcast named ‘The Magic Inside Us’ which is about learning to accept who you are and being the best version of yourself. I would really appreciate if you could take some time out and hear me. I know u r so busy but it would seriously mean the world to me. You are such an inspiration. I know many people would have said it but dude, you are the star of my life. I am not even sure if this would reach out to u since u might be having a big team of assistants or whatever. But I hold a tiny speck of trust in the magic of words and in the goodness of people. I hereby request the person reading it to direct it to Nina La Cour. Ur words live in the hearts of thousands of people. Will be waiting eagerly for your upcoming projects. Lots of Love ❤️ Khushi

Thank you Nina, I just listened to the first three episodes in a mini binge on the eve of a deadline when I find myself lacking the confidence and the energy to keep going. This has really helped me. You’re the best.
