Vijay FafatAn Engineered Banker with poetic fancies at heart is how Vijay Fafat describes himself in self-effacing moments. Born and brought up in Mumbai when it was still Bombay, Vijay spent half his life in the US before migrating to Singapore. Vijay has publshed 2 books featuring ultra-short short English verses: - The Ninth Pawn of White - A Book of Unwritten Verses, and - Quiescence- Musings Against A Setting Sun He is currently working on a few different writing projects, still learning the craft of it... - a book on Urdu shayari with English translations, - a novel which revolves around the Indian epic, Mahabharat, - a collection of stories where mathematics, magic realism, mythology, science fiction and metaphysical aspects of the world are central features. - a book of English poems Over the years, he has subconsciously realized that one's profession may provide subsistence, but it is really the moonlighting on your secret passion which sails your spirit. Vijay ardently believes that any form of writing should be immersive, taking the reader on a mind's journey where she feels one with the created word. Whether it is a jolt of Magic Realism story, a set of struggling verses, or even a technical paper, it is the conviction of the writing which is its innate force, its raison d'etre. Vijay enjoys taking leisurely breaks for nature-travel with his family, dragon-boating, reading Borges and Bradbury, indulging in hilarious karaoke sessions, and spreading a lighter mood all around over cups of tea and banter.
