ABOUT
BRIEF PROFESSIONAL INFO
It is great to pursue a career in the publishing field. I cherish the value addition gained from working in various editorial roles and teams in various organizations. It was great to be part of editorial teams and to work with authors, faculty members, editorial and various teams such as copyright, design, administration, communication, development, commissioning as well as freelancers, typesetters, and vendors. After the initial contribution to books and magazines in 2007, I realized I had something valuable to contribute to the world and turned to writing on various topics. From articles, book chapters, paper presentations, white papers, editing modules, blogs, editing manuscripts, reviewing edited manuscripts, letters on causes, microblogs, I had the opportunity to work on a wide range of subjects, themes, and ideas. Now with authoring books, there are many bridges to cross and valleys to discover with letters and words. Nature is precious and has been a part of life from an young age. Many publishers develop both print as well as digital formats of the written word. It’s a great feeling to hold the physical copy of a book that one has contributed by way of authoring or in various ways. However, it’s my own decision to come up with only e-books. We are fortunate to have many languages. While all languages are not supported by all publishers, my endeavour will be to come up with works in several Indian and other languages. I don't wish to limit myself to a particular genre or category. While the endeavour is to come up with many works on a wide range of topics, quality will continue to be an important aspect. I believe we are much more than our profession and there are many other ways to contribute to the society, nation, and the world. I can be reached via the contact form on the contact page.
