About
Aamer Dhamani -- nicknamed ‘D’ because not many people can pronounce his last name properly the first three dozen times -- is a closet-writer. When he isn’t procrastinating or indulging in reveries of becoming a fulltime novelist, he is found working behind the scenes for The News International (TNI) in Karachi, Pakistan.
D was born in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and moved to Karachi a couple of weeks before the Gulf War broke out. He started freelancing a decade later. And after enjoying being his own boss for about a decade -- so he could have all the time he would need to write his bestseller, but procrastination got the better of him -- he became a part of the Pakistani print media in 2009.
