Dr. Fatima Imam has a doctorate in history with extensive teaching experience in Indian history, culture, urbanization, and literature. After spending fifteen years in academia as a researcher, paper presenter, conference organizer, public speaker, and departmental head, now she divides her time teaching and writing short fiction stories and poetry.

Dr. Imam also mentors students for academic success, volunteers as an interpreter, and does translation projects. She has published articles in peer-reviewed journals, written book reviews, and encyclopedia entries.

She writes blogs, fiction stories, and poems on Medium about her perspectives on life, love, culture, environment, and nature. She believes that the genuine reading of articles, positive comments, and a maximum number of claps can make a huge difference in the writer’s life.

Medium articles are read by her, keeping these criteria in mind. Her profile includes 1000+ published works in the Lark, Dancing Elephant Press, iPoetry, Literary Impulse, Illumination, and Blue Insights. She is an editor of Moonlight Confessions.

Her favorite pastime is spending time with Luke (cat), meditating, going for nature walks, traveling to historical places, reading, painting, and cooking. She lives in Toronto, Canada, and works from home. Evenings and weekends are relished for relaxing, reading, and painting, but an outdoor adventure can excite her equally.

Dr. Imam is an avid follower of news related to climate change, gender, and politics. She also relishes healthy discussions on tricky topics but doesn’t let the media’s negativity enter her intellectual space.

She refrains from commenting too much on social media and still uses them as a tool to enhance our life experiences without being addicted.

Dr. Imam is a firm believer in not taking life too seriously and living in the moment with love and gratitude.
