"Pratyush Deb, born in 1985 in Chandigarh, is a versatile writer. Deb’s literary
journey began at the age of nine when his first short story was published in a
national newspaper. He is an empathetic chronicler of the fascinating diversity
and fragility of human existence, along with animals and environment. His two
published anthologies, Thereepooty and Other Stories and A Boat on the Sea of
Stories have enthralled readers with their originality and diversity of genres.
As a student, he was a recipient of two prestigious national scholarships:
the National Talent Search (NTS) awarded by the National Council of
Educational Research and Training (NCERT), and the Kishore Vaigyanik
Protsahan Yojana (KVPY) awarded by the Department of Science and
Technology (DST), Govt. of India.
Inspired by his own experience, his work explores a wide range of
themes, always leaving readers with a positive takeaway. With a degree in IT
and nearly a decade of industry experience, Deb later pursued his passion for
creative writing. His work, praised by both professionals and lay readers,
showcases a mastery of language and a refreshingly personal style.
His hobbies include writing computer code and delving into subjects like
cryptozoology, unidentified aerial phenomena, extra-terrestrials and the ancient
astronaut theory.
Deb’s lifelong love of literature, from science fiction to fantasy, has
infused his writing with an appealing blend of imagination and insight. As an
author with a deep appreciation for Indian English writing, he continues to
inspire readers with his multi-dimensional storytelling. With fifty short stories
already written, Pratyush Deb’s journey into the world of writing has only
begun.
