Shobhan Bantwal calls her writing 'Bollywood in a Book;' romantic, colorful, action-packed tales, rich with elements of Indian culture -- stories that entertain and educate. Her writing career is a 'menopausal epiphany,' because she took up creative writing at the age of 50. She loves writing stories about her native India and Hindu culture. Shobhan has three published novels (The Dowry Bride, The Forbidden Daughter, and The Sari Shop Widow), with a fourth slated for 2010. She is also a contributing author to romantic anthologies and freelances for a number of publications. Author talk followed by booksigning. Registration is required; sign up today!
