She is best known for her YA lit column on Parade.com and her YA series Tiny Pretty Things. Personal lifeCharaipotra is Indian-American,[1] born to two pediatrician parents. Despite family hopes of becoming a doctor, she chose to become a writer instead.[2] She has two siblings.[2] Charaipotra attended Rutgers University with a double-major in journalism and American Studies. Following, she earned a master's degree in dramatic writing and South Asian Diaspora Studies from NYU in 2006. In 2012, Charaipotra graduated with an MFA from The New School, where she studied creative writing in the Writing for Children program.[3][4] Aside from writing novels, she is a freelance writer and editor for entertainment sites like Teen Vogue, Vulture.com[5], Bustle, and other major national media. Charaipotra has also made a name as a celebrity journalist for People and an editor at the now defunct TeenPeople.[6] In 2013, Charaipotra co-founded CAKE Literary, a "boutique book development company with a decidedly diverse bent", with her Tiny Pretty Things co-author Dhonielle Clayton.[7][8] The two friends met at The New School at the beginning of their MFA and bonded over a shared feeling of being unrepresented in children and YA books growing up and wanting to change that. They founded CAKE Literary on the belief that "rich, diversity-infused reads that are still compulsively readable — and very relatable" are possible.[9] The company focuses on developing readable, high concept ideas to middle grade, YA, and women's fiction. Charaipotra is also a We Need Diverse Books team member, Selected worksHer solo debut, Symptoms of a Heartbreak, was inspired by shows like Doogie Howser, M.D. Charaipotra saw the novel as an opportunity to write a similar story, starring Indian protagonists.[2] BibliographyNovels
