My Passion Project
I’m Nazia Tabasum. As an author and writer, I believe that my role is not just about writing stories but about making a meaningful impact. This initiative is not just a passion project but a mission to help young minds develop essential reading and writing skills that will benefit them for life.
Why Story Seed?
In today’s world, children spend too much time on screens. They face academic pressure, which limits creative expression.
Reading and writing improve critical thinking, creativity, and communication skills. I personally benefited from reading and writing and want to help children develop these habits too from their young age.
Just like a seed grows into a tree, small reading and writing habits grow into lifelong skills.
This project plants a love for books and storytelling in young minds.
This initiative is not just about mentoring but about making a real impact.
