Tell us what you though of the episode
🎙️ On this episode of the Kingdom of Dreams Podcast, I sit down with author Nasreen Variyawa to discuss her first novel, The Last Breath First, and the deeply personal journey behind the book.
Nasreen opens up about loss, grief, and how those experiences found their way into her writing. We explore the process of turning grief into storytelling, creating characters from a place of emotion, and finding meaning and hope through the creative process.
It’s a heartfelt conversation about loss, healing, love, writing, and how some of our most difficult experiences can inspire the stories we tell.
Nasreen Variyawa is a South African author, editor, educator and author coach whose work explores love, faith, personal growth and resilience. After spending more than a decade in Türkiye teaching and working with aspiring writers, she returned to South Africa to continue her writing career. She is the author of several books, including the award-winning Exceptional Authors Are Authentic and the novel Tuqburni: Bury Me Softly. Her latest work, The Last Breath First, is a contemporary Muslim romance exploring second chances, healing, faith and love.
