Message

At The 1947 Partition Archive, I edit content gathered from interviews with Partition survivors for archival and social media use. I polish grammar, punctuation, and formatting, and follow the organisation’s style guide when editing summaries.

At Hachette, I evaluated manuscripts and wrote book reports, proofread manuscripts for printing, and worked on conceptualising titles from manuscript to printed book stage. I also gained an overview of the commercial publishing industry and Indian publishing scene.

At Blaft Publications, I supported administrative, logistics, and production work, including book and website formatting and eBook distribution. I also helped design and format book covers and used my fluency in Tamil to discuss projects and contract opportunities with previously published authors.

As Head of Fiction at Chaicopy, I oversaw theme selection, submissions, author communications, copyediting, and final proofs. My writing and editing have also covered Indian culture, mental health, and storytelling in the digital age.
