Huma Qureshi is an author and former newspaper journalist turned blogger at Our Story Time, where she also runs online writing courses that guide people to find inspiration and their creative writing voice. We talked a lot about writing and creativity, including Huma’s tips for those who want to write more creatively, and her experience of carving out a new career path based on a desire for freedom. We also ventured into impostor syndrome, owning your expertise, banging your own drum and selling what you do in a nice, quiet way.
