Dear Shivam,
This is a modified version of a biog I sent to Jeet Thayil. Hope it will do.
My silence at present is not due to shyness but because I have too much on hand to dare tackle anything further. I promise I will become much more visible by the end of the month, when two of my biggest projects come to an end. Till then, bear with me.

My writing has nothing to do with being Western, or a Punjabi graft: it is everything to do with the way I am, which crosses all cultural lines. I think most women have a bawdy sense of humour, which they hide from their men. It's our secret weapon. At sixty-one I still find myself debating the phallic significance of microphones, and giggling at the unexpected humour of life. I write about it too, for the sheer pleasure of it.
