A Word From The Author
When it comes to writing, discipline is the key to success. No matter how talented you are, if you are unable to have limits, then it could be dangerous. As a writer, I highly value the concept of self- discipline and accountability towards the content we share. Since most of the writers pen their thoughts as a way of revelation, it is much important to have limits as a control mechanism to ensure professionalism.

“A kid’s story that even grownups will love.”
I read Little Princess Lily with my niece—and I secretly loved it more than she did! It’s sweet, timeless, and full of childhood magic. I can’t believe Aruni wrote it as a child herself!

Poetry Highlights
Kaviya Numba Sulaga Se Vith (2013) is a poignant Sinhala poetry collection written by Aruni Kalupahana at just 18 years old, during her final years of school. The book explores the emotional and psychological landscape of women’s lives through the metaphor of the four seasons — equating birth, youth, middle age, and old age to spring, summer, fall, and winter. With remarkable insight and sensitivity, Aruni captures how women experience life, identity, and emotion, reflecting on the joys, griefs, transformations, and quiet strength that define each stage of womanhood.
