Shubhankar is a poet from Belagavi, Karnataka, who started writing at 19-more out of instinct than intention. For him, poetry is a way to observe people, feel things deeply, and sometimes put together emotions that don't always belong side by side. He doesn't always remember exactly what he's written-many poems feel like moments caught on the run, fleeting but honest. This collection was born from a 21-day poetry challenge, but it turned into something more: a mix of horror, love, loss, and the small truths we often overlook. Ink and Impressions is his first published work-a reflection of real thoughts, real feelings, and the effort to make sense of them all.
