The Anti-Procrastinator: Speaking at the Mathrubhumi Festival of Letters in India
In February 2025, I was invited to the largest festival of literature in Southern India, the MBFLI in Kerala, to speak about my new book, The Anti-Procrastinator (Penguin Random House).
The event gathered over 400 authors from all over the world and brought in bestsellers from 18 different countries. For 4 full days, they ran 8 events simultaneously, all hosted within the Kanakakkunnu Palace, from panels, interviews, readings, solo presentations and media roundtables.
I was invited to participate in 3 different sessions:
- A panel discussion on Eastern Philosophy in Writing and Living
- A panel discussion on Breaking Boundaries where I acted as the moderator and translator for Spanish bestseller author Manuel Vilas.
- A solo presentation to talk about my work as an author and my books, The Anti-Procrastinator and The Lemon Tree Mindset.
I also hosted a book signing to meet with local readers, connect with the audiences and sign copies of my books.
The theme of the festival was Currents of Change and the talks covered a broad range of subjects, from demographic shifts to environmental concerns, technological advancements, economic trends, and social movements.
