Saumya Misra — Design Manager
I am a writer, editor, thinker and dreamer; I however, strive to realize those dreams, the outcome of which is always positive—for the betterment of self and society. I hail from a family of journalists & have been one for the past 12 years, starting my career with The Indian Express and moving on to The Times of India. I am now the publisher and Editor of one-of-its-kind monthly bi-lingual colour magazine on environment, TreeTake, which is of Nature, for Nature, by us. It is a genuine and positive effort aimed at creating awareness with well researched articles; engaging common people and making them realize their individual duties to help make possible a clean & green society; highlighting issues and challenges before us with the motive of arriving at positive solutions. I hope this magazine acts like a medical practitioner who is able to diagnose what ails the health of a person & then refers the ‘patient’ to the ‘expert’ who provides treatment that ultimately cures. It is not about negative criticism guided by petty politics but transcends the boundaries of politics, states & even nations—after all the earth & its environment concerns everyone & no part of the country or the world can claim to remain unaffected by adverse impacts meted out to it. I am also an author whose first novel—A Life Less Lived, a social thriller—was well received. My second book ‘A Grey Story’, a psychological thriller, is also a winner. Yet another release, Two-&-A-Half-Stories, is a must read too. The book is available online as well as in stores Pan India and overseas.
