Something About Me and My Book:
My writing background. I have written a non-fiction best-seller in India on the philosophy of the Indian saint Swami Vivekananda; a 5,000-word short story of mine features in PRIZEWINNING ASIAN FICTION (published by Hong Kong Univeristy Press); and I have just completed co-authoring two books of essays for Macmillan India.

However, the book I hope to promote through this website is THE FANTABULOUS FENS, a children's fantasy novel that was electronically published by ireadiwrite.com (Canada) on 25th January 2010.

Why I Am Here

Hello! My name is Gautam Sen. I have just begun blogging. It's not half as common in India, where I come from, as I suspect it is in the West. Perhaps I wouldn't have thought of blogging at all, but for the circumstances .... I'm a writer (apart from being a teacher), but till now it's been the old-fashioned way: I haven't had to concern myself with book promotion!
