Hi, I’m Rimi B. Chatterjee, an author of science fiction and fantasy based in India. I write novels, screenplays, comics and shorts.
I’m creating the Antisense Universe, a storyworld focused on climate action and civilisational redesign. The story arc runs from 2011 to the twenty-seventh century. The core of the story is Antisense, a way of living that replaces law and money with love and happiness using the karma ethical system. Yup, it’s luxury gay space anarchosyndicalism with added sauce.
Ten books are planned, and I have to write and publish them in the next five years. I’m a cancer survivor and heart patient with a terminal condition. I will not live to see another general election in my country, where many of my friends and colleagues are prisoners of conscience under a fascist regime.
I’m also aro ace, POC and genderfluid. I’m a Utopia awardee and a finalist at the Hollywood Climate Pitchfest.
After many difficulties I’ve finally got this site back up again. I’ve lost all my old data, so I will be rebuilding from scratch.
It’ll take a while, but I should soon have all my content back up again.
In the meantime, here’s the cover of Ashqabad: City of Stories, Book Zero of the Antisense Universe, due out as ebook only on all platforms on 30 November 2024.
