About The Author
Apurva Lal Ranjan
I’m Apurva Lal Ranjan, writing as Apryl. After 14 years in the corporate world as a finance professional, I chose to trade spreadsheets for stories and embrace a slower, more mindful way of living.
Travel fuels my imagination, art and food soothe my soul, and strong black coffee is my quiet meditation. Writing, for me, is where reflection meets rhythm — a space to pause and make sense of fleeting moments.
My stories are woven from lived experiences, conversations, and the delicate emotions that linger between words. They are deeply personal yet meant to resonate universally.
Thank you for holding my work in your hands — I hope somewhere within these pages, you find a part of yourself.

About the Book – Ours, Somehow
Ours, Somehow is a collection of 11 short stories that find meaning in the everyday — in the silences, glances, dreams, and the quiet rituals of life. Each story takes you to familiar spaces — a train journey, a forgotten bag, a steaming cup of coffee, or an unspoken goodbye — and reveals the depth hidden within the ordinary. Through themes of love, identity, belonging, and choice, Apryl gently unravels what it means to be human in an age of constant motion. Simple yet layered, introspective yet comforting — Ours, Somehow reminds us that even in life’s quietest moments, something deeply connects us all.
