J.A. Joshi
J.A. Joshi was born and raised in North London, England, the youngest of five children. Her parents fascinated her with stories about Krishna and India since she was a baby. Her fascination grew as she did. She always had passion for reading and writing which was lucky as she loved to read her own writing. By the time she was fourteen, it was a foregone conclusion that she would be a writer in a family of scientists and she completed an English Literature degree with first honors at the University of Wales, Cardiff as a result. She began writing Follow the Cowherd Boy, a modern retelling of a traditional Hindu tale, during her final year at university, completing it in 2004 when she was 22 years old. She speaks regularly about women, Hindu culture, and publishing.
