‘Dream, Believe, Achieve.’ That’s the dictum Aysal Waheed has followed in her young life, carving a niche for herself as an author and orator, who also excels at horse riding.
About the last, she says, “I dreamed to be a horse rider at the age of 8 years; learned to believe in myself and achieved my goal as a mature horse rider at such a young age.”
She has to her credit 8 books, including two anthologies – ‘Through the Portal’, ‘A day in the life of A Pencil’, ‘Chips Goes to School’, ‘The Demon’s Hatred’, ‘The Terror’, ‘Alejandra Plays Soccer’, ‘The Balhaerian Prince’, ‘Cocktail Creative’ and ‘Blessings of Life in 2020’ – which are available on Amazon.com.
