“My only ask is that you show up and you write.”
— Smitha, Founder

Writing has never been just about words for me. It has always been about listening. About noticing what sits inside us and giving it a language that feels honest, gentle, and alive.
I'm Smitha Murthy, the co-founder of MyndStories. I've spent years working with stories that sit at the intersection of mental health, identity, creativity, and emotional truth. My work has always been rooted in one belief: Writing is a solitary act. But witnessing is shared. It is a way of meeting ourselves with softness and courage at the same time.
This community was created for writers who have often felt alone. Who need guidance and support but are afraid to ask. It's for those who want rhythm, depth, and a place to grow without being rushed.
“These are our stories. I invite you to write yours.”
