Rishit Bhatia works in the tech industry but has always had an appreciation for good storytelling and secondary worlds. He believes that art and technology are incomplete without each other, which is exactly where Pappuverse: The Viral Quest - his debut novel was born.
The book started years ago as an idea about friendship, class, and the strange power of a phone notification, and very nearly stayed unfinished.
Rishit lives for stories that are funny first and meaningful second, or maybe the other way around. This is the first of many set in the Pappuverse, with more on the way.
