Vinaya Bhagat

Vinaya Bhagat is an IT professional and author. Her short stories have been published in anthologies and have been short-listed in national and international writing competitions. Trickster is her debut novel.

Vinaya grew up with her face partly obscured by the books she was reading. She knew more about her favourite characters than her next door neighbours. When not reading she was writing and immersing herself in imaginary worlds.

Writing took a backseat as she pursued a career in IT, until a fateful day in December 2006. On that cold winter morning in Dallas Texas, she met with a near fatal car crash. During her lengthy recovery, from wounds of body and mind, she once again found solace in writing and picked up the pen with renewed focus.

Vinaya lives in Bangalore, India with her husband, who is a radiologist and her eight-year-old son. Weekends find her inventing stories and games with her son.
