About us:

We are India’s first collaborative fiction writers. Four midlifers who enjoy writing during their travels and sharing stories. What started as a hobby resulted in our first book Triptease – Nothing Happens By Chance. The book was written over holidays to a dozen cities in India and overseas. We progressed to our latest offering Mooncircles – As The Night Unravelled.
What started as a lark, surprisingly culminated in a gripping tale. We slipped, we stumbled, we fell but we wrote. We argued, we fought, we taught, we learnt but we wrote.
A casual wish, a side remark, a scribble on the paper that slowly grew, in power and intent. Like each brush stroke of a painting, each of a different shade and texture, each cog of the machine, each serving a different motion we set out to complete a cycle of thought, ideas and finally a story.
We leave it to the readers to decide how well we have done with our books. But, we do know that this will be cherished by the four of us for a lifetime. We draw on experiences, impressions and personalities, who surround us. For that we are utterly grateful to our friends and family. Our books are purely a fragment of fiction born and bred in our minds and has no connection with the souls alive or dead.
Each book has taken almost a year to pen and journeyed with us to dozens of vivid locales both in India and overseas as we took our weekend breaks and holidays. The restaurants and cafés at the spiritual centre on the outskirts of Bengaluru, being our favourite haunt. It is these flavours over varied timeframes and places that have enriched our story telling.
We look forward to providing you with entertaining and great stories. A special note of thanks to our initial close group of readers; Seema, Vandana, Mehak, Neetu and Harris. We are grateful to Jaya Nair and Rachna for proofing the first cuts and Nikita Singh for being our inhouse forensics expert.
We have experienced the thrill of experiencing the lives of our characters and hope you do too.

Badass Pix with a Cheap-Ass Camera

 



Badass Pix with a Cheap-Ass Camera

Badass and Badass Pix is not a genre. It's an attitude, an approach, a vibe. More than anything, it's Art Photography, which is a h-u-g-e and diverse categorization. It's you being a photo artist, not just a photographer. It's having the self-confidence to take risks, break the rules, and venture outside norms. It's rebellion! Anarchy! A fight for freedom! But you know: without jail time, a rap sheet, a prison tattoo, or stitches.

Badass can be photojournalism, scenery, portraits. It is fun to screw around with all of those and add twists that baffle viewers. Badass is futzing around outside the boundaries of technology, good taste, or conventional artistic theory. Badass uses your tools, skills, and heart to make Art -- not just 'nice' photos.

Badass Pix are squinted at, disqualified from contests, or vaguely labeled "mixed media," "digital graphics," or "weird sh*t." Most of the work I call Badass, illustrated here, is found-art photography, which more-or-less means art made by recording the image as one finds it. Simply…as is. 

Now I can imagine you saying, "Well, duh, that's pretty much all photography, now isn't it?" Not really: here's some help. Badass is trying to find images that most people miss or never see at all because it takes imagination (some might say awareness. Or both) to recognize them.

Confessions and Musing of a Financial Planner

 


Confessions and Musings of a Financial Planner: How the Layman Gets Laid


On Monday, October 19, 1987 the United States stock market experienced it’s largest one-day percentage drop ever. In the period leading up to the crash the author had been managing millions of dollars for his clients, all of which was invested in the stock market. On the Tuesday before the crash he made a difficult and agonizing decision to transfer all his clients’ stock market holdings to cash. That decision turned out to be quite fateful and was in part responsible for the Heier Group catapulting from a small local organization to one of national presence. In light of his ever expanding clientele, the ensuing years gave Bob Heier more than ample opportunity to seize the very best opportunities available to his clients as well as to examine every dark corner of personal finance and to confront the very worst of the scams, pitfalls and problems his clients faced.

Confessions of a Financial Planner may be said to be a compendium of those pitfalls; the book is a series of revelations and warnings to today’s consumers as they try to work safely and intelligently to build a financial future for themselves. In light of the growing array of lightening changes and gimmicks now confronting the public daily, Confessions should be viewed as an especially apt and indispensable tool and resource for anyone seeking to avoid the all too common financial disasters as they construct a sensible approach to the growth of their financial security.


Author: Robert Heier. Publisher: Atlantic Publishing Group, Inc. Author Bio: Robert began his career as a civil appellate litigator for the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. where he also entered private practice. Disturbed by the constant acrimony in litigation he switched careers to financial planning and headed the Heier Group which had a national clientele. During that time he was also a syndicated columnist writing locally on personal finance; he then became syndicated nationally, appearing in some 100 papers across the country. He, his beautiful wife Christine and their adorable feline lunatics are currently retired in southwest Florida where he is free to pursue his first love, photography. He also continues to play softball avidly and each Tuesday and Thursday can be found giving lessons on how to hit groundballs to shortstop and how to regularly hit into double plays. For some inexplicable reason the classes are not well attended.
