Singh Dhillon lives in NYC with his wife and feisty three-year-old daughter,
who thinks everything is negotiable. He writes about parenting, family travel
and book on his travel blog at ishqinabackpack.com . A recent graduate of the
Writers’ Institute at CUNY, he is working on a novel, just like that dog on Family Guy. He holds an MFA in creative
writing and teaches fiction, literature, and other subjects needed to launch a
lucrative career in the arts.
