(born on 6 November 1971, in Lahore, Pakistan) is a Pakistani author.
Nadya is a lifelong learner and educationalist.
She is a dreamer and dreams of a more peaceful and tolerant world for everyone.
Her greatest inspiration is her father, Dr Arshad Malik, and his compilations of beautiful Urdu poetry.
Nadya's dreams and vision are fuelled by her diverse reading and authors across the globe.
She loves learning about art, history, different cultures and exploring the world.
She is a meticulous researcher, and her favorite places are cafes and libraries-where she can spend hours jotting notes and organizing information.
Nadya collects notebooks and actually writes her entire first draft in her unusual, carefully selected journals.
Her desk is surrounded by wooden and porcelain animals, beautiful pens, colorful folders, scented candles and inspiring quotations-which motivate her to write regularly.
Nadya loves nature, long walks, fresh air, plenty of sunshine-and the ability to wake up in the morning like a child-free to discover the joys and wonders of a new day.
