Somewhere along the way 'his tree' shook and dropped him in the IT field as an Instructional Designer. Seven years and a few corporations later, he decided to bid adieu to the 9 to 9 grind and its accompanying stresses and strains that made him bald, pot-bellied, and almost completely drained and de-brained. Fourteen years on, he is balder and more pot-bellied than ever. But experts are glad to report that the grey cells are slowly sparking back to life. He has two lovely children, who inspire him to write. He also has some leisure time that he divides equally between navel gazing, thumb twiddling, and productive projects. As a result, he has a clutch of stories and poems, some of which have been published in journals and anthologies like 'Words, Words, Words', 'Inscribed', 'Here and Now', 'Being Boys' and 'Pens on Fire'. Two have become picture books. His latest release is a collection of short stories for children titled 'Talking Tales'. Bharat dreams of a time when he will be able to make a living out of writing.
