50 episodes old today. Still a baby but a happy, proud one. Grateful to all you writers, readers, listeners, and followers. Thank you and let's keep raising the tide! Today's #DesiCraftChat is with Venkat Srinivasan whose debut nonfiction, The Origin Story of India's States, is out today. He discusses the book's genesis and research, why it changed him as a writer, what he'd like readers to take away from it, and more. https://buff.ly/2ZtEs7M⠀ “I would like for readers to discover an author they have not heard of before and might go away to learn more about." ~Anita Goveas on the Where We Find Ourselves anthology #DesiBooks10QA @DesiBooks https://buff.ly/3ngSl0R⠀ If you missed Vidhu Aggarwal's excellent #FiveDesiFaves, listen or read here. Her own hybrid poetry collection, Daughter Isotope, is out now. In this snippet, she discusses works of desi-punk, desi-futurism, and desi-fantastic. https://buff.ly/3C6SSIT
