Published! in Khabar Magazine

I am happy to report that my latest published article is available in the May 2010 issue of Khabar Magazine (circulation 27,000 + online), a monthly magazine for the Indian community in Georgia and surrounding areas.
 Click here for the online article.


I wrote this article as a Mother's Day gift for my mom.  I re-purposed  an old business school essay and re-wrote it before submitting.  The magazine edited it, also.  My only gripe is that one of the magazine edits changed the meaning of an event from my mom's story.  Otherwise, I was very happy that the edits sharpened my essay.  The magazine version includes a photo of my mom and me taken in 2003 at my cousin's wedding in England.  I can't wait to get my print copy so I can give it to my mom.

    Hi Alpa. Your article "My Mother's Path" is so well described and speaks for all us ladies in the mid 30-40 age range. Cheers to your Mom!!! I raelly liked when you mentioned that you convinced yourself doing the opposite of everyone else to gain your independence. I wished i had this advice / wisdom when i was younger - but that is OK - taking things moment by moment.

    Hi,

    Read your piece with keen interest. How intriguing that it started as a business school essay.
