Priyanka Taslim is a writer represented by Quressa Robinson of Folio Literary Management. Priyanka writes swoony young adult and adult novels starring the Bengali characters she wishes she’d seen growing up.

When she isn’t writing, she’s teaching, reading, otherwise geeking out, or waxing lyrical about her dapper tuxedo cat, Loki.

Priyanka, a light-skinned Bangladeshi woman in a bronze cableknit sweater, with her dark brown hair loose around her face, smiles at the viewer wearing red lipstick and holding a white tea cup trimmed in a metallic brown and pink pattern.

OFFICIAL BIO:

Priyanka Taslim is a writer, teacher, and lifelong New Jersey resident.

Having grown up in a bustling Bangladeshi diaspora community, surrounded by her mother’s entire clan and many aunties of no relation, her writing often features families, communities, and all the drama therein.

Currently, Priyanka teaches by day and tells all kinds of stories about Bangladeshi characters by night. Her writing usually stars spunky Bengali heroines finding their place in the world…and a little swoony romance, too.
