Diya and I live in the USA. She is an 8th grader and I am a Junior in High School. Diya is a passionate cartoonist and I enjoy writing stories and poetry. We bring to you, in collaboration with the Society to Aid the Hearing Impaired (SAHI), this collection of short stories- Euphonic Voyage: Sailing Beyond Sound and Social Barriers.      The passion that went into this project is based deeply in the incredible work done by SAHI. Surrounded by family, lovingly crammed around the dinner table, we remember in vivid detail listening to the the noble stories SAHI has been a part of, wondering to ourselves, “how can people born with so much less than us rise to such incredible heights?”. Over many summers, we have had the privilege to meet several cochlear implantees and witness the work that SAHI does. When Diya and I were presented with the opportunity to represent these incredible people and carry their stories out into the wider world, we jumped at the chance to contribute in the best way we could!       These efforts, born out of deep respect and passion for the work SAHI does to change the lives of people, finally culminated in this collection inspiring short stories, each one handcrafted for the unique and inspiring journey their respective hero undertook. Euphonic Voyage: Sailing Beyond Sound and Social Barriers is the pinnacle of our artistic ability, forged from the fires of our hearts and souls.
