COORG ROLE MODELS: COVER STORY

By P.T. Bopanna

The cover of most of my previous books were designed by my young friend Franz Mendonsa, who has a Master’s in Entertainment Technology from Carnegie Mellon University in the United States.

This time, I am making use of the ‘in-house’ talent to design my latest book ‘Coorg Role Models’. The cover has been designed by Bhakti Saraswat-Devaiah (in picture).

A computer science graduate from the BMS college of Engineering, Bengaluru, Bhakti is a User Experience designer by profession and a dance enthusiast. She was shortlisted for the Juggernaut Short Story Prize.

Initially, I plan to bring out an e-book of Coorg Role Models, because nowadays the demand for physical books have gone down as people are reluctant to visit book shops due to the pandemic.

My last book ‘My Coorg Chronicles’ was published early last year. So far, I have authored seven books. All my books are available on Amazon Kindle.
