About the Author
Miniatures was written in 2016, when Atharva Inamdar was 19 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The short stories work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. The short story collections represent compressed versions of the same creative energy that produces full-length books in 15-day sprints.
