| Introduction | Welcome to my Scriptorium, my online Writing Room. I love to connect with other writers, so grab a chair, a cup of coffee, a bar of chocolate and we will discuss stories, books, writing, works in progress, characters, plots, marketing, titles and many other things related to writing and publishing. |
| Interests | The written word has fascinated me from the time I could read. I read books across several genres: both fiction as well as non- fiction. I write Middle Grade Fiction, Short Stories, as well as Picture Books, though I prefer to call them books with illustrations. There are two books with illustrations out there with my name on, as well as few Puffin Anthologies. I have been published in several newspapers in India. I can get lost while writing and reading. As a writer I have travelled a lot through my imagination to fictitious worlds and befriended strange and fascinating characters. These characters haunt me until I write their stories. Reading, Writing, Long Walks, Visiting Museums and Libraries. |
