Back to the creative haven

June 9, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

After a break of three months I am back to my desk. Lockdown proved lot more difficult than I thought it would be. Women’s responsibilities increased a few hundred times leaving no time for what we like to do the most. Anyway, thankfully nothing is permanent and this situation will also pass.

Meanwhile, I am all geared up to start my work on illustrations for my next children’s book. Here are a few practice sketches I have been drawing.

August 28, 2019 by admin

I am a writer and an illustrator. I try to create visual impacts through words and striking expressions through illustrations. With an MA in English Literature, I taught Business English at Engineering and MBA colleges for seven years. I later moved to the UK, along with my husband and son, where I stayed for five years and started to write my debut novel, Anita: End of a Beginning, and published my first children’s picture book, Story of Lord Jagannath.  Born and raised in the beautiful hills of Nilgiris, I presently reside in Pune, India, with my wonderful husband and two lovely sons. I am passionate about writing, particularly when it comes to themes that delve into human nature, and I focus on what makes a person tick.

I constantly ponder the events that happen in people’s personal and collective lives and wonder if there is a pattern to all of it. As a little girl, I used to look up to the night’s sky and wonder if we were alone in the vast universe. During my teenage years, I concluded that every living being comes with a set of pre-designed actions to be performed and that there was no escape. However, as my spiritual quest intensified, it opened new avenues of knowledge that made me question every conclusion I had previously come to. I was gradually able to see how both karma and free-will act simultaneously, making every day a thrilling experience that is unique to every person.  Through my writing, I try to explore this plethora of emotions as they can make people act in so many different ways.Deeply rooted in the ancient Indian philosophy, I find human nature and its variegation intriguing. My debut novel is an expression of my own search into the realities of life.

Dale Carnegie “Did you ever see an unhappy horse? Did you ever see bird that had the blues? One reason why birds and horses are not unhappy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses.”

Before the Internet, a person with vast knowledge was considered intelligent. A person who can multitask was the best kind of worker. One who can talk well was a leader. Internet has revised these conclusions. Today, a person with good hands-on experience in a small area of a particular field is sort after. Someone who […]
