Born in Uttar Pradesh, Shashi studied Civil Engineering in New Delhi and works for a multinational firm in the field of Real Estate, based out of Bangalore - India.

His latest book “Haiku � Sound Of One Hand Clapping� - A Coffee Table Book shares his Haiku and Photography, spanning over 3 decades of his passion. The book is a real treasure for those who enjoy the haiku short form of poetry created by the late great Japanese poet Matsuo Basho. Shashi’s book encompasses the many transformations of haiku, like the writings that reflect the many mountain roads that Basho travelled while composing pocket gems of short poems to the stark countryside, whimsical haiku of innovator poets like the late great Issa Kobayashi.

Regular writing, at one particular time which is for me in the early morning, after meditation and close before I start getting ready for office.
I travel lot of places, keep a thin notebook on my back pocket, and write anything interesting that crosses my path.
I try to be immersed in 'now' and take everything in total awareness.
These give me enough material to write, when I get down to write. As I have the whole three part series in my head for decades, I keep adding material to it.(less)

So I go about writing the book with a particular person in mind, a cousin, a colleague or a student and see how I can keep his/her interest in the story and when I feel that the person is losing interest, I bring in something totally different to jolt him out of his reverie. So while writing, I am in conversation with this reader/person and go about writing / presenting the story to this particular person. When finally I have finished the story telling, I edit/edit and edit more.
I have a method of doing the structuring, I paste post it notes on my table with characters, story line and timeline and I keep juggling them to find the right structure that appeals to this imaginary/real reader and me.(less)
