About Angeline
Angeline lives in Western India in the desert city of Jodhpur. She would have liked to pursue a career in journalism but settled in for a career as a full-time writer with the Jodhpur and Jaipur Polo magazines; she is currently the Associate Editor for these souvenir magazines.
Her Background
Having spent her formative teen years at boarding school in Mussoorie. Growing up, I was greatly influenced by Ruskin Bond's and R.K Narayan's writing styles - simple yet touching and memorable. The life we led on with missionary parents who served tirelessly—conditioned my brother Kim & myself to respect hard work and remain humble.
A Turning Point
But the turning point in her life, she adds with a laugh, came when she met her future husband in 1996. Marrying the army type was never something I wanted—but his presence and our daughter’s has made all the difference! These stories are a part of my life’s landscape, which has inspired them, greatly.
Her Inspirations
From Calcutta to the Thar, the Rann, to the hills. These are people I have known, seen, touched, in some way or the other. I hope my words are painting a picture in your mind—if yes, then I must be doing it right!
