Paper Boats - Spandan Upadhyay

Spandan Upadhyay writes fiction the way some people leave voice notes they’ll never send: honest, a little unhinged, and meant for no one in particular. He believes plot is secondary, pain is useful, and closure is a scam. He writes because he never really learned how to explain things any other way.

GENRE: Literary Fiction

Blurb:

Rishu spends his days folding boats from scraps of paper and sending them into the drain outside his home, hoping they’ll make it somewhere, anywhere, better. In a world of broken routines and unspoken disappointments, Paper Boats captures the delicate beauty of childhood seen through uncertain eyes. It's a tender, haunting story of small losses, missed moments, and silent love. For anyone who has ever watched something they loved drift just out of reach—this story is for you.
