Baseerat Javed currently lives in Virginia with her husband, who is a psychiatrist, and enjoys visits from her three adult children, who are lawyers.

I was born in India; however, I only lived there for about ten years before I left. During my time in India my grandmother told me many stories and myths that inspired me to write later in life because she was such a great storyteller. Her love for cats and stories is something that really impacted me and made me want to write. Aside from creating my own stories, I enjoy blending Indian spices to create my own spice blends, and I’m launching that as a business soon. I see myself as a creative person who lives to create different things, be it spices, stories, or gardening, making garlands for family functions, sewing, or making custom jewelry from India, both with gold and semi-precious stones. I also enjoy blending Indian perfumes and creating fragrances. I created a nice custom perfume for my son’s wedding and provided more than 250 guests with it. To this day, I get requests about it. This is how my life is: constant creativity and pursuing it in every form.
