20 Bangalore Based Authors Who Write In English

Last month, I was at a friend’s book launch. That’s when it struck me how useful it would be to have a list of authors who live in Bangalore. Of course I googled it! But couldn’t find a good one. So here is my attempt. This is a work in progress. I will add to this as and when. Leave a comment if you find this useful. Brownie points for adding to this list.

Check out my first novel Every Thing We Are being written 1000 words a day in November 2020 as part of #NaNoWriMo. It’s FREE!
