Her haiku and occasionally a tanka or a rare haibun have been published in many internationally reputed print and online journals and included in quite a few anthologies.
She has also been the co-editor of Naad Anunaad : an anthology of contemporary haiku along with Kala Ramesh as the chief editor.
Born and educated in Kolkata, she now lives in the quiet city of Belgaum in the southern parts of India.
Every haiku a delight to read. Exquisite collection.
