Payal Dhar, Wordsmith

I am...

A freelance writer and editor, and part-time Web designer. And now also an author. I write on IT and sport (okay, not as much as I'd like to), and sometimes fiction. I edit books and journals for publishing houses, Web site content, CD-ROM content, and pretty much anything else that has text in it. If you want my professional services, contact me.

I live in...

India. Though am currently orchestrating a move to the Eternal City. My application has been caught up in some red tape seeing as how I am not qualified to live there. But considering I created the blasted place, perhaps we can work something out! ;-)

In my free time, I...

Work. No, seriously. After my daily quota of sleep, reading, mooching around on the Web, playing The Sims 2, whatever little time is left is spent working. That said, all my employers/clients are quite happy with me. I'd feel very conceited putting down all the nice things they say about me here, but if you're looking for references, I guess I could be arm-twisted into forwarding you some.

My aim in life...

Is to write books for a living. If that doesn't work out, I'd be quite happy to remain a freelance writer and Web designer. Okay, I'd like some more money in my bank and also to move out of this horrible city I live in. Oh, and I want a dog, a never-ending supply of books, a PowerBook (even an iMac will do), an iPod, an organized life, and my own swimming pool.

Feel free to do something about all that!
