Indie Author Speaks 6: Well I am not a serious author, just write for fun and I absolutely don’t blog or use facebook, I rather prefer old fashioned books! So this section will be read simply out of curiosity. I will have to agree Lidia has points, check out how much friends encourage others in YouTube etc.

Fake Goddesses: Full agreement! Women should simply accept that they are human beings not angels or demons.

Think twice: Point noted! These modern gadgets and their weird ways!

Cracker menace: Do I hate loud noise? Yes sir I do but my hating won’t work. This is a pain we will have to suffer because Indian parents have forgotten bringing up decent kids! When we were kids we had time fixed for bursting loud crackers and that too for one day only! We were so angry sometimes but there was no disobeying mom or dad!

SOS: true words! Happiness is never easy!

WOW: I will have to collect all shlokas and read them. This one is pretty interesting. I am not much into religious texts but will try them.

Goa Inquisition: I will have to get the entire article.

Bad sales pitches: Good one! Typos and slip of tongue are always hilarious!

Fun and Frolic section:

Agnijaat and Agnishatdal Book 10: They both sound interesting. Will have to ask Agni if I can get a copy of both!

Teresa Schnapasky and Memoirs of a Pakhtun immigrant: Loved the interview, Teresa sounds like an accomplished and very talented author. Will check out the book! Writing a captivating biography is herculean task I believe! So it certainly is worth checking out!

Depraves: I so don’t believe critiques! When critiques rubbish a movie I always check it out that level of disbelief! So I certainly agree with her, test yourself before rejecting a movie or book!

Indian Raga Now:

R.D. Burman- he was an extraordinary talent, his untimely death did great damage to hindi movie music industry.

Guru Dutt- What a talent! Wish it was recognized by his contemporary viewers and he was not pushed to suicide. I have watched his classics multiple time and all I can say about them that they are true gems. Yes, they all are sad, tragic but gems all the same!

Mumbly: Have not watched this series, will check out!

Kamalpur: We all have these memories, don’t we? Time or places we can’t go back to like college canteen and bunking classes to have fun!

Youtube channel: Already checked them all out.

Storytime:

Hatred: Now that is one sick mind, glad that he got his dose of medicine!

Kalipuja: Well the second big festival of month! I love decorating the house with candles and eat sweets!

Theme: Earth- thoroughly enjoyed the set of poems and paintings that went with them. Writing form poetry is tough but loved these poems. Even though I am more for formless poetry!

The cartoon: Absolutely loved it! I so hate these newspapers that are turning the media into advertisement pages! All you will see is movie stars, entertainers, players and politicians. No place for news! Hate journalists and the things they try to push down our gullets every day!

In the end quite enjoyed the Ezine, and its colourful sketches/paintings!

That is it I guess! See you again in Agrahayan, and thank you Agni/Sharmishtha for translating my works!

Yours sincerely,
Labanya

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique by Troy David Loy

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique: Agnishatdal Poush 1426, December 2019 https://gumroad.com/l/umPGr https://shoptly.com/i/mon by Troy David Loy https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy iravu vanakkam. naandaan Troy. Welcome to the Poush 1426 review of Agnishatdal! Here are a few of the outstanding features for this issue… First there’s… … Let us Begin… Our Virtual Trip to India This painting shows a young woman leaning, her back to a tree, while a small fishing boat travels past on the river in the background. Bharatendu Harishchandra So, here is one whose linguistic influence was deep and far-reaching. I must look for any published works of his that remain in print, and I suspect that these are more than a few sources I can look on. Rupjibi and Kalambiji Saptarchi criticizes the intellectual failures of modern Indian movies made for money, not the writer’s craft. Masai 1 of 4 Brieuc begins this series on the Masai people

Shubho Jagaddhatripuja!

    Shubho Jagadhdhatripuja, May our worlds be blessed forever. Wish you all a very blessed time ahead. Love.

A piece from The Soul Devourers Now available in shoptly as Agnimalya Book 9 https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu   "The names that our parents gave us were Agni (Fire) and Vari (water), yours was Agni, mine Vari, based on our natures, of course; I don’t think you would mind if I call you Agni." Her sister asked.   She shrugged.   "Who are these people?" she asked.   "These people were once human beings. Their greed was too strong, so strong it tempted them into selling their soul to the devil. There is a temple in Gajmahal, where they worship the devil, and have been for centuries. These soul devourers –– yes, that’s what they are called because that’s what they become capable of devouring souls–– souls of their victims are their life-force. That keeps them alive, as some of them are centuries old. Their head priest was one of the first priests of the temple, and has done it for centuries now."   "These p
