Vinitha is an award-winning author and editor who paints and also writes poetry. An ex-journalist and columnist, Vinitha has written over 30 books—fiction, non-fiction, picture books—for children. Her stories are part of CBSE and ICSE curriculum. Her book Jamini Roy’s Unbroken Lines is being sent for awards, while her book Ammu and the Sparrows won the Neev Literature Award 2021 and made it to the Parag Honour List and is being used by therapists in narrative healing.
The scholarship she won at Hedgebrooke’s Writers in Residence Program that supports fully-funded residencies for selected women-identified writers has led her to write her first not-for-children book — a food memoir — which is being represented by A Suitable Agency and will be published by Bloomsbury.
