Published.

I have some great news to share - one of my short stories has been published! I know, I know, it's one puny story and I have an entire career of short stories and novels ahead of me. But a writer's first published story is always special.

Urban Shots is a series of short story collections published by Grey Oak & Westland. My short story, Gap, is in the edition called Urban Shots:Crossroads. Edited by bestselling author, Ahmed Faiyaz, this anthology explores the conflict, chaos and confusion in the lives of interesting and colourful characters in Urban India. 


The entire process of dealing with Grey Oak has been great and their co-publishing tie-up with Westland has ensured that the book could be pre-ordered from many online retailers in India. The book is now available, ready to be shipped, and these online stores are vying with each other to offer the best discounts on these titles:

Flipkart
Landmark
Indiaplaza
Crossword

The book launches are scheduled on the following dates in the following cities:

19 Jan 2012 - 7 pm, Landmark, Infiniti Mall, Andheri, Mumbai

20 Jan 2012 - 7 pm, Landmark, Phoenix Marketcity, Pune

Watch this space for details of the Bangalore and Chennai launches.

Do read my story, Gap, and let me know what you think.
