Sweta Leena Panda is neither married nor actively dating—she describes herself as being on a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and growth. Her focus remains on her career, writing, and personal aspirations, though she remains open to love in the future. In her own words, she hopes to one day find "Mr. Charm"—a life partner who will support her dreams unconditionally. She acknowledges societal pressures around relationships but firmly believes that "everyone deserves pure love and the freedom to pursue their ambitions." Despite past disappointments (including being told she "doesn’t deserve" her big dreams), she chooses patience, self-reliance, and intentional growth over rushing into companionship.

Sweta has big dreams in higher studies, writing, business, and social impact—all driven by her belief in the power of storytelling. Here’s what she wants to achieve: Writing Goals: Turn her books (like Mirage of Memories) into movies or web series. (She has already worked on short films about child labor and women’s empowerment.) Write more novels, especially on bold, real-life topics (like her Infidelity or Reality series). Tech & Social Work: Create apps focused on ending hunger, women’s safety, mental health, or skill-building. Partner with others to support marginalized voices. Her Struggle? She has big dreams but limited resources. As she says: "I can’t do it alone—but I won’t give up." Her Life & Career Plan: She wants to do an MS in the USA to grow professionally. Even though she feels hopeless in love, she believes: "If God closes one door, He opens another. Keep doing your best—karma will reward you."

Sweta began writing in 2012, channeling her experiences as a social worker, traveler, and entrepreneur into fiction. Her early works explored themes of relationships and self-worth, later evolving into deeper narratives like Mirage of Memories. She self-published before partnering with Notion Press in 2024.

Her stories blend raw realism with emotional depth, often inspired by real-life struggles—betrayal, trauma, and resilience. Unlike traditional romance, her work questions societal norms (e.g., Infidelity or Reality) and empowers readers to confront their own truths.

She’s open to: Guest blogging (writing-related or social impact topics). Podcast interviews on creativity, resilience, or indie publishing. CSR partnerships for her literacy initiatives. Contact via her website or writer@swetaleenapanda.com
