I always dreamt of becoming a journalist as a teenager. But my father thought other wise and that is how I ended up in a Engineering college as against a Journalism School. But the desire never died and today after having passed out and being a software engineer by profession I have taken up freelance writing as a passion.
I have made a humble start by getting my articles published in various publications online and print. Here you can find the list of articles that have been published under each publication. I hope this list grows big and there are many more additions to it. I have penned articles for –
