About The Author
Rohit Gore grew up in a number of towns in India. At various times in his childhood, he wanted to be a theatre actor and a stand-up. He believes the countless hours spent in rehearsing and performing the acts was time well spent (others disagreed). 

After his engineering degree, he was in Mumbai, where he fulfilled one of his dreams - being a salesman. An MBA from S P Jain Institute followed and since then he is in the IT industry. 

He loves sports, specifically the discussing and watching part of it, since the playing days are long gone. He has travelled a lot – a consequence of living in Mumbai and being a travelling salesman. His greatest passion is reading and it inspired him to write. He is a frequent contributor to many online writing forums and wishes there were more writing groups.

He currently lives in Pune, a wonderfully vibrant city. He is married and it was his wife who told him to pursue his writing. When he is not working or writing or reading, he is found spending time with his family, reading about rock bands or pursuing his other passion – rock music. One of the things he would like to get better at is photography.
