I have ten years of experience in the writing/editing field. Working on the news desks of some of the major Indian television news channels forms the bulk of my professional experience. Besides that, I have worked on the editorial department of a TV production house producing shows on books and authors from Asia, the web content developing team of a children's portal (Pitara.com), and as an editor for two leading publishing houses. I have also worked as a writer-editor assisting students applying for higher studies in terms of polishing their admission essays. In addition to this range of experience, a number of my articles have been published in leading Indian dailies, a US-based magazine, and several e-zines.
My debut nonfiction book, Making Out In America is slated for release over the next few months. It's a humorous, anecdotal account of an outsider's brush with everyday American lingo. At present, I am writing another nonfiction book.
I also author two blogs, one on writing and literature, and the other on food and culture.
