Soumyadipta ‘Shom’ Biswas is a senior sales executive, a newspaper columnist, a short-story writer, and a dabbler in sundry other things.
He used to have a weekly column on books at the New Indian Express, and his short stories have been published in literary magazines in India and Singapore, notably the Quarterly Literary Review Singapore (QLRS), Out of Print, The Bombay Review and Spark. He is a regular quizzer, notably having been a semi-finalist at the “University Challenge India” Quiz (2003-04) televised on BBC World. And he perhaps spends way too much time fussing over his Fantasy Premier League (FPL) team.
He is a collector of antique sports books (Wisdens especially), and is a member of the Bangalore Writers Workshop.
'Of Spins, Sixes and Surprises : 50 Defining Moments in Indian Cricket', which he has co-written with Titash Banerjea, is his first book.
