I’m the author of five books: a novel, The Queen of Jasmine Country (HarperCollins India, 2018), a short story collection, The High Priestess Never Marries (HarperCollins India, 2016), two books of poetry, Witchcraft (Bullfighter Books, 2008) and The Altar of the Only World (HarperCollins India, 2017); and a picture book for children, The Ammuchi Puchi (Lantana Publishing, 2016 & Puffin India, 2018).
My column, “The Venus Flytrap”, appears in The New Indian Express. I was specially commissioned to write and perform an original poem at the Commonwealth Day Observance at Westminister Abbey in 2015. I’m currently working on a novel, Constellation of Scars, among other poetry, fiction and illustration projects. I was born in India in 1985, and grew up in Sri Lanka and Malaysia; I have been living in Chennai since 2007.
On this blog you’ll find links to my writing, unedited versions of my work that appears in newspapers and magazines… and nowhere near as much chaos, miscellany and whimsy as life actually contains. :) You can find some of that, though, on my Instagram. I’m also on Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr.
