"It was a wonderful experience interacting with you and appreciate the way you have planned and executed the whole publication process within the agreed timelines.”
Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh Pal
Suma writes with the kind of fierce compassion that forces you to confront uncomfortable truths. Her stories inhabit the shadow lands between tradition and modernity, duty and desire, survival and dignity—and she refuses to offer easy answers. These are not stories that comfort; these are stories that illuminate. What sets Suma apart is her unwavering gaze. She writes about domestic violence, child abuse, political corruption, and systemic injustice without sentimentality or melodrama. Her writing demands something of you as a reader. Her stories will stay with you long after you close the book, not always comfortably, but always truthfully.

SUMA ARUN BHAT
Suma Bhat is a singer and German language expert, a sporadic MC, a reluctant Yoga practitioner and a writer who loves English and Kannada literature in equal measures. Her formal tryst with writing began with the Short Story Writing Course at BWW. A couple of her stories and poems have been published on online platforms such as Shortstory 101.org, efictionIndia.org, WingWord Poetry Competition (her poem made it to the shortlist), Kalakaar. Org. While she swears by the richness and the broader canvas that novels present, she loves the possibilities and drama packed in short stories. Her collection of poems in Kannada and English are ready to go to print. These she does, while managing her lovely family of five. comprising of herself, her wonderfully supportive husband and three lovely children.
