Writing career[edit]

Warrier has authored four books, all of which were published by Vitasta Publishing. The first is The Diary of A Journalist: The Little Flower Girl and Others (2013), an anthological book containing 36 stories about her meeting with several people during her journalistic career. The idea of the book first came up while she was visiting an ashram for children with HIV.^[6] She next wrote His Days with Bapu Gandhi's Personal Secretary Recalls (2016), chronicling the life of Mahatma Gandhi.^[7] Dreamchasers: Entrepreneurs from the South of the Vindhyas came as her third book and was released in 2017.^[8][9] Dreamchasers: Women Entrepreneurs from the South of the Vindhyas (2018) is her fourth book, which details about a total of 14 women entrepreneurs.^[4] The book's development started in 1997 after Warrier met the academic Ashok Jhunjhunwala. She told a Hindu interviewer, "I was drawn to it because of Jhunjhunwala. He had an incubation centre at [the Indian Institute of Technology Madras] long before we started using terms like ‘startup’. When I interviewed him, he spoke about the centre and wanted me to meet a few entrepreneurs."^[10]
