The future is as unforgiving as the past. Replete with electrifying twists, Mahesh Ratnam’s short(ish) stories examine the darkest trends of our future while never losing sight of the tenacious human spirit. The protagonists of these sci-fi tales aren’t always heroes. Still, they crawl ever upward through the muck, fighting tooth and nail for life, liberty, and love. Whether they can make it out in one piece is another question entirely.
Mahesh Ratnam Rajan
Mahesh, a.k.a. LightWeaver, is a globetrotting management consultant who moonlights as a fashion photographer with roots in Chennai, India.
As an “engineering” student, he experimented with photography, graphic design, and managing a metal band. Once the degree was out of Mahesh’s way, he left for the United States to pursue an MBA. It was in New Orleans, Louisiana where his love for storytelling was dialed up to an eleven. Being back in Chennai during the Covid lockdown gave Mahesh the opportunity to expand on the multiple storylines he had been writing down over the years when he was inspired by either reading a book, watching a movie and wondering what if the story had progressed in a different direction, folk tales that he heard during his travels, or the times he was lost in thought with soundtracks from various movies playing in the background.
