About Shearwater

Born in India, tamed in the suburbs of the Windy City and the heat of southern Birmingham, I am currently surviving in the battlefield of University and I write to escape.

And because it's one of the few things that I'm good at. Besides eating.


Interests

TV (Dexter, Sherlock, Suits), Movies (Avengers, POTC, Disney), Actors (Tom Hiddleston), chocolate, reading & writing.

Occupation

Uni Soldier


The idea that a poem was a made thing stayed with me, and I decided then that I wanted to be an artist, not just a diarist. So I put myself through a kind of apprenticeship in writing poetry, and I understood even then that my practice as a poet was deeply related to my reading.
