  On the question of publishing: I'm sure that this is a topic of interest
to all of us. I'm planning, while in Nepal, to work on a book about the
urban migrant experience, and i was wondering how you went around getting
such a thing published. Are there specific publishing houses that you
approach before you start writing, or do you submit the work after? And are
there different publishing houses interested in different genres:
ethnography vs fiction? What if its a book with mixed genres? Radhika, you
might know about this....
