About Me

Welcome to my website (it doubles up as a blog + portfolio)!

I’m Chandana Banerjee, a writer, author, journalist, micro business coach for military wives and moms, green wellness coach, and an artist, living and working across India. I have 23+ years of experience in writing for publications across the country and the world. I'm also a military wife and homeschooling mom, and write and speak about about the unique experiences and challenges of these lifestyles (and how to overcome them) in my blog and Youtube Channel.

I am also the author of the Amazon bestselling book 'The Work-At-Home Military Wife', which was the number #1 bestseller on Amazon in February 2019. 

Internationally, I've written for Al Jazeera, Medium, The Christian Science Monitor, Animal Wellness, Power of Moms and India Currents among others.

I've also written prolifically for many Indian publications and companies. My work has appeared in Scroll.in, Make My Trip, Silver Talkies, Complete Wellbeing, BBC Good Homes, Ideal Home and Gardens, Jade, Femina, The Hoot, The Caravan, Women’s Era, Windows & Aisles and several other magazines. If you’d like to go through my entire list of bylines, please click here.

I write extensively about creating portable entrepreneurial careers, the military wife lifestyle, homeschooling in India and work-life balance at home on my blog https://www.chandanabanerjee.com. I've also blogged about the revival of the sari & sari style, self-care and slow living in my previous posts.

I have another blog, Gorgeous Girls Go Green, where I write about eco-friendly homemaking, green lifestyle and sustainable wellness.

Apart from blogging, journalistic writing and content writing, I also write short, snappy social media 'stories' and content. You can see my 'tiny illustrative stories' at my art brand, Jugnoo Story Art.

Before I started freelancing full time, I wrote and edited several web magazines, worked in corporate communications and wrote content for an e-learning outfit.

I've written about a wide range of topics in the last several years. From wellness to travel, food to green businesses, change makers to home décor, children’s fiction to personal essays, I’m exploring the world and the people in it, one article and one post at a time.

Please feel free to contact me if you’d like me to work on a content writing project, article, ebook or blog. I’m interested in writing articles and blog posts about green living, well-being, social enterprises, small businesses and people making a change.
