"Decades ago, I hopped on my first-ever flight from India to the USA, filled with the sadness of leaving my family behind, a sense of adventure of living in a foreign land, and vague excitement about discovering unique and excellent research opportunities in the field of Computer-Aided Engineering. I spent the early to mid-1990s in graduate school at The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!). Along the way, I acquired a rich collection of experiences (many of which form the basis for these stories) and human connections (I not only met my life partner in grad school but also made friends for life)."
"When the COVID-19 pandemic hit us all, I had the luxury to reflect on my journey and those around me. There were several tales I wanted to share, and once I started putting them into words, I couldn’t stop. One short story led to another, and I decided to publish 'Bonds' after I completed the fifth.
I am currently working on my second collection of short stories."
"While some tales are biographical, each character is an amalgam of myself, my kith, my kin, my creative liberties, and figments of my imagination.
I have set some of the stories before the era of social media and ubiquitous electronic communications. So, certain situations I have presented may seem absurd today, although we did fine with our limited technologies!"
