To Be or Not To Be

.. is the question. I choose all.

Hello,

It’s baltic out here but I am popping out of my hibernation to share an update.

My poems have appeared in this special Poetry issue by The Punch Magazine, which features several well-known Indian poets. This is exciting, humbling, and very encouraging, especially because some of the poets in the magazine I share space with are also my favourite poets!

I have adopted my parents first names as my second name for all literary writing - Pallavi Padma-Uday so if you see this, it’s me aka Pallavi Singh.

Do let me know what you think:

The Punch Magazine - The Byword, Arts, Culture, New Voices, Business, Events, Interviews

If this update on poetry disappoints you, my apologies. To be this person and to not be that person (labels, essentially) hasn’t worked for me. I guess everything I love - from my research in business history to my journalism to my poetry and non-fiction, have to go together. I am just not one person at times, I am multitudes. A work in progress and always learning, unequivocally. :)

Love,

Pallavi.
