Your expertise deserves a book. I’ll take you from first word to published author.
Helping executives, academics and thought leaders write books that open doors – backed by 30 years of shaping ideas at The Times of India.
How I can help
With over three decades in journalism and editorial leadership, I help executives, academics, and thought leaders do one thing exceptionally well — turn their expertise into a published book.
From expertise to authority
You have the ideas, experience, and the story. I have the craft to put it on the page in your voice. Together we build a book you’ll be proud to put your name on.
Transform ideas into books
If you’ve started writing but feel stuck, scattered, or unsure, I help you shape, structure, and sharpen what you have into a manuscript ready for publishing.
Turn insight into influence
For academics and researchers who need their work translated from the language of scholarship into the language of impact — without losing rigour.
From India’s newsrooms to your book.
I spent three decades as Senior Editor at The Times of India, shaping some of India’s most-read publications — Times Ascent, Times Property, Education Times, and Mumbai Mirror online.
That career taught me one thing above all: every person with deep expertise has a story worth telling. Most just need the right person to help them tell it.
Today I work with executives, academics, and thought leaders across India to turn their ideas into books that establish authority, build legacy, and open doors they didn’t know existed.
Why Choose Me
With decades of experience shaping stories at the highest levels — including pioneering niche journalism at The Times of India — I craft compelling narratives across genres like business, memoirs, management, productivity, motivation, health, and travel. I’ve authored two books, edited one, researched one, and coached two. I collaborate with corporate leaders to create coffee table books, keynote speeches, and thought leadership content.

A Journalist’s Instinct
