In this fortnightly column, founders talk about what they're reading, listening to and being inspired by. This time, we have Ambareesh Murty, founder and CEO of online furniture marketplace Pepperfry.PEOPLE AND ACCOUNTS I FOLLOW ON SOCIAL MEDIAPODCASTS I LISTEN TOI don’t listen to many podcasts, I read when I have free time
BLOGS I BROWSEI follow the blogs and social media posts of the authors I like. I follow Football365.com religiously and FC Barcelona website regularly.
BOOKS I’M READING NOWI read for 30-45 minutes every night and far longer on weekends.
I am a fan of the fantasy and historical fiction genre. Some of my favourite authors are Robert Jordan (The Wheel of Time Series), Terry Pratchett, Brandon Sanderson, Patrick Rothfuss and I am currently on Book 10 of the Malazan Book of the Fallen by Steven Erikson.
I subscribe to National Geographic magazine. I have a collection of Reader’s Digest from the 1950s till now at home.
After having run out of space for books in the real world, my wife and I started purchasing Kindle books [I guess we must be among the top buyers of Kindle books :)]. I have downloaded the Kindle App onto my iPad and normally read books off my iPad.
