Editors & Selectors
Who's going to be selecting and editing your work?
The Editors

PeterPeter Griffin
Peter has been a journalist, radio jockey, compere, voice-over artist, PR rep, salesman (complete with briefcase and tie), and an advertising creative director. He now does his best to refute allegations that “has been” is the operative phrase in the previous sentence by doing a little of all those things as a freelance writer, web and communications consultant and general layabout. He lives in and works out of New Bombay and tries to get enough time off from chasing payments to read, travel and wonder why he’s the only writer he knows who doesn’t seem to have a book brewing. He only wears ties to weddings these days.

ManishaManisha Lakhe
Dubbed ‘hatchet queen' by people scorched by her sarcastic tongue and fiery temper, by people who have had their works hurled back at them across the room for simply being ‘verbal vomit,' Manisha Lakhe is an ancient crone who cannot withstand bad grammar. She is reputed to have a medieval rack where she dangles pretentious writers by their participles. She has also a keen sense of smell for good writing and nurtures new writers by feeding them her divine cheesecake.
AnnieAnnie Zaidi
Annie prefers to be called 'writer', though 'jack-of-all-beats hack' would be closer to the truth.
She's writes poetry when she must, and prose, because she must.
She reported for a tabloid, edited a youth magazine, taught journalism where she learnt it, volunteered for social stuff, and currently freelances.
A book of poems, called The Almost Drizzles Of May, was written in collaboration with two other half-crazed girls, and has been 'in the process of publication' for almost a year. She has since developed an aversion to procrastinators given to publishing.
The Selectors
The selectors were the Editors, listed above, and also Ratnalekha Shetty, Vijay Shetty and Sunil Nair.
