eading and writing have always been an integral part of my life... even as a child I spent a lot of time in libraries and was either reading or writing something. My first article was published in a youth magazine in the 70s.

Translation from Marwari to English wasn’t so difficult but my brief was to adopt an informal and romantic style….! A little difficult for me as I’d so far done only serious and very formal writing for tourism. But it was fun and fortunately quite appreciated !
