[edit] My Early Days & My First Bestseller at 17
As a kid my favorite hobby was to sneak peek into my cartoonist-writer father Prabir Ghosh's study. I loved the smell of ink and paint that hung in the room and started my own adventure-comics-series ‘Birdman’ at 10. Birdman became popular among my classmates and by 13 I was writing fiction regularly that would get published in magazines here and there. The teenagers’ magazine that I was editing since I was in grade 8, had reached a circulation of 4,000 by the time I was in grade 10, with some of the best writers contributing occasionally. I got noticed by the biggest publisher of Eastern India; Dey’s Publishing, and was given the offer to write a 400 page book for them. The first turning point came in my life with the publication of my first big book, ‘Nostradamus—The True Story’ at the age of 17. The book remained in the top 10 charts for 46 weeks! I was still in school then.
[edit] Between 1995 & 2000
I started my career at a sprouting stage. I became a regular contributor of almost all of the best magazines of the market after this; remaining busy with both fiction as well as nonfiction writings. Between 1995 and 2000 I wrote three more books (thrillers); all of which became bestsellers. I ventured as a movie director and in 1998 when I directed my first mini series for Doordarshan, the no1 Asian television channel by popularity. This work for children was appreciated and I was hired by Channel 4 for their production, Gurubusters, featured under Equinox.
[edit] How & Why I launched the 1st Indian language greeting cards
In 1999 I had a brainwave. I was studying the greeting card market of the 100 billion population India. I found out that the market was huge and was controlled by few players and largely dominated by English language greeting cards. I came to a decision that I will try out Indian language greeting cards for this enormous market. In 2000 I launched the world’s first Bengali language greeting cards that were out of stock in 7 days flat. My brand became the no1 selling Indian greeting card brand, and still reigns as the no. 1.
[edit] Nat Geo Channel, Wikipedia & my recent activities
After working with National Geographic Channel as a journalist in 2005, for the X-Men series, and again with Channel 4, I focused fully into writing. I had become quite a sought after web content writer by the end of 2005, writing simultaneously for about 20 websites every month. From web content to sales pages; reviews to resume; books to ebooks—my name became known in the world of writing. I became a Wikipedia editor in 2005 and gained the friendship of people like Lee Bandoni (UK media tycoon & internet marketing guru), Gavin Tachibana, the Editor of Orkut (the popular community site of Google), Arfeen Khan (world famous management guru and writer) besides plenty of editors worldwide.
[edit] As a ghostwriter of celebrities
I have been preferred as a ghostwriter when it comes to writing the books of celebrities like Hollywood-Bollywood film stars to UK politicians. The biography of the famous movie star or politician you have just completed reading might as well actually be the work of mine.
[edit] Teaming up with UK
Getting busier with increased requests, I understood what I needed was a team of talented writers. I teamed up with the world famous UK media group Bandoni Media to start getmecontent.com; coordinated by me. My other sites are copywriter.tk; ghostwriters.tk; pinakighosh.net. Check out the online magazine edited by me, for rational minds thefreethinker.tk.
