My new poetry book is expected to be out this year: Maria Goretti on writing, her favourite books, and more

Popular Indian TV anchor, actor, chef, and author Maria Goretti needs no introduction. Goretti is known for her anchoring and cooking skills, and her Instagram profile is proof of this. Taking her passion for food a step ahead, Goretti had written her first book titled 'From My Kitchen to Yours: Food, Love & Other Ingredients' in 2016. In a recent interview with us, Maria Goretti revealed that she is now coming out with her new book soon. She also spoke about her favourite books, writing tips, and more. Excerpts from the interview:

1. You wrote a cookbook earlier. So, what inspires you to write?

When I first started writing, I think, I had a lot to say and so I started writing a blog. That's how I got offered a book. I realised that I had so many stories inside me, so much to say, and there was a lot of encouragement on the whole which pushed me to write further. I finally wrote a food book titled 'From My Kitchen to Yours: Food, Love & Other Ingredients' but it is not just a food book! It also has stories about life and little things. I think, for me, food is so connected to life that there's always some story from the past, something that happens (related to food) that I write about.
