Finding the Conversation in the silence

"Hi, I’m Ayesha Bilal (G.I.V)

For a long time, I thought writing was about describing the world outside. But eventually, I realized the most difficult landscape to map was the one inside my own room.

You see me in the illustrations—sitting on the edge of the bed, notebook in hand, surrounded by the quiet reminders of time and dreams. That represents my reality. I created I and Me because I realized that the person I show to the world and the person I see in the mirror aren't always the same.

I write to bridge that gap. I write to make friends with the reflection. Thank you for stepping into my sanctuary and joining the conversation."
