About the Author
Syllables of Fire was written in 2015, when Atharva Inamdar was 18 and developing what would become The Vomit Method — marathon writing sessions of 20 hours a day, 15 days straight, to finish a book. The poetry & verse work from this period reflects a writer pushing hard to find his voice. Poetry was one of the first forms Atharva tried — his English teacher Gita Miss pushed him to build vocabulary through verse, and the habit stuck across 15 collections.
