I write stories. Short stories, long stories, speculative-fiction stories, stories that go well with chai, stories that don't, stories with brown people, stories without, stories about what is, what isn't, and yet.

Through them, I have met Milton Friedman to discuss his time machines (“Love In A Hot Climate”), bluffed up new physics (“A Sky Full Of Constants”), modified Islam (“Mughal”), terrorized a pig farmer (“Harris On The Pig”), asked the Trimurti to swap jobs (“Invisible Hand”), lived in pre-war Germany (“Dialetheia”) and become a robot suitcase trying to get from Seattle to Los Angeles (“Dopplegestalt”).

These and other stories can be found in magazines and anthologies such as Albedo One, Chiaroscuro, InterZone, Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet, New Genre, Sybil's Garage, Strange Horizons, TEL: Stories and Apex World SF. My first novel “The Beast With Nine Billion Feet” (Zubaan) is available in Crosswords, Landmark, Odyssey and other major stores or via Zubaan's online store.

But enough about me & my damn stories. I prefer conversations to monologues, so look around, tickle the links, sample the samosas, and then drop me a line about you.
