Some of my out-of- print titles are still available with Amazon. I have been published by all major national dailies (Times of India, Hindustan Times, Indian Express, The Pioneer, The Hindu, Asian Age, The Statesman, The Telegraph and Deccan Herald) and magazines (Femina, Eve’s Weekly, Indian Literature, Poetry Today, Family Magazine, Woman’s Era and The Little Magazine, among others), where my stories, articles for the general reader and translated stories and poems have appeared.

My stories and poems for children have appeared in many children’s magazines, including Children’s World, Target, Chandamama and Tinkle.
