Ishita Deshmukh is, in many ways, a mascot for national integration! Born to Bengali and Gujarati parents, she grew up on a steady diet of Tamil culture and French literature (in the lovely town of Puducherry). If that wasn’t enough, she is married to a Telugu bidda. She has this uncanny (and unnerving) ability to switch between six different languages in the course of a conversation.
Ishita is a multi-tasking marketing professional who currently runs a small home business in Singapore, called Dessert Storm, and helps with her family business back home at Puducherry.
Ishita is passionate about the arts and has always dreamed of becoming a writer. Among other items, she loves painting, playing the piano and embroidery. She is a regular fixture at the neighbourhood library and has a special place in her heart for romantic fiction. Her first book Heart Quake has been published in May 2018.
Ishita is not a foodie. However she loves to conjure up scrumptious food for her family and friends. Her desserts are lip-smacking good.
This blog reflects Ishita’s journey through life.
