Hi I am a writer of Indian origin. I was a journalist in India, writing for major newspapers, like The Times of India, and The Indian Post (now defunct). I worked for years in Femina (a women' s magazine) as a subeditor. I also worked as a chief sub editor in The Indian Post and one of the articles I wrote when I was there won me an national award for best writing of the year. After coming to the US, I have written for a range of publications, including Ms, The New York Times, Little India, and Knowledge@Wharton. I am currently in the process of polishing my first novel for submission.
