Welcome to Indian Authors: Biographies & Books

The Indian Authors platform is all about the Indians who write. You will read about Indian poets, novelists, non-fiction authors and literary personalities. We write about any Indian who has made a significant or even a little but important contribution to the ongoing idea of Indian Literature. Languages, region and philosophy may be different but one thing that remains common among the Indian authors is their will to contribute the best they can to the progress of an idea called India. We will celebrate their will and we will bring to light their contributions.
