The Holistic Pine Unveils Tribute Special Issue with Kirti V on the Cover

 


Award-winning writer, educator, and storyteller graces the latest edition celebrating literary excellence

The Holistic Pine: International Independent Lifestyle and Culture Journal has unveiled the much-anticipated Tribute Special Issue, with celebrated writer, educator, and literary icon Kirti V gracing the cover. This special edition honours voices that have made a lasting impact through literature, and Kirti’s presence embodies that spirit in every sense.

Hailing from the lush landscapes of Kerala—fondly known as God’s Own Country—and now rooted in the vibrant rhythm of Bangalore, Kirti V has carved a remarkable literary journey that reflects both depth and diversity. An IT professional turned educator, Kirti’s creative voyage was set in motion during the stillness of the 2020 pandemic—a period that sparked within her an unstoppable passion for storytelling.

Today, Kirti V stands tall as an award-winning writer, multilingual bibliophile, and captivating orator. Her love for poetry, prose, music, sports, quizzing, and art seamlessly blends into her vibrant narratives, winning hearts across borders. Her poetic performances, often marked by their raw emotion and intensity, have found audiences on numerous prestigious platforms.

Kirti’s literary achievements include an impressive list of accolades such as the Literoma Author of the Year (2021), NE8X Tagore Commemorative Award (2022), Sahityakosh Samman, NE8X LitFest Author of the Year (2023), Best Rhymer by The Little Booktique Hub (2022), Ukiyoto Poet of the Year (2022), and notably, the HolisticPine Award (2025) and Lotus Publication Award (2025). She has also been a proud nominee for the prestigious Orange Flower Awards for three consecutive years.

Her published works—Tides of Life (2022), From My Pen (2024), and Poetic Pearls (2024)—have all garnered critical acclaim, with Tides of Life and Poetic Pearls earning Certificates of Excellence from the Asian Literary Society.

A prominent member of acclaimed literary communities such as StoryMirror, ArtoonsInn, Asian Literary Society, Inkdew, Penmancy, and The Passion of Poetry, Kirti credits these platforms for nurturing her evolving craft.

“In Kirti V, we don’t just see a writer—we see a storyteller who lives and breathes every word,” remarked Anulal S, Editor-in-Chief of The Holistic Pine. “Her presence on this Tribute Special Issue cover symbolizes the power of words to heal, inspire, and transform.”

The Tribute Special Issue is available in both print and digital formats and features in-depth interviews, literary retrospectives, and curated features honouring remarkable voices in global literature.
