Eeek! I’m back! naandaan Troy! Welcome for Magh 1426’s review of Fireborn! Here are a few of the key features this issue!

Indie Author Speaks: Few Tips 10 Some useful advice here on marketing and business suggestions. In particular be very skeptical of those claiming to have life-coach credentials!

From the Quill of Femme Sole: acid Tongues The creator notes that while men often have the edge in sheer upper-body strength, be careful about getting on a woman’s bad side, especially when a woman yourself!

Techbabble: “We Don’t Eavesdrop” Or so protest a wee bit many computer and phone companies! Here, the Authoress notes the pervasiveness, and perverseness, of social media marketing and content tracking algorithms!

India Now: Push Selling Here’s a piece on the sneaky sales tactics and marketing of businesses with sub-par products, who are not only shills, but not adverse to being bribed as well! Caveat Emptor!

My Pen: Preferences Change The Authoress discusses the shift in her views over time, on matters of deep personal import.

10 Silly Questions The creator notes some pretty succinct things to ask when watching a typical sf or horror movie, pointing out the things that are done by characters too stupid for their own (in movie) profession or IQ, things someone with a brain would never do!

INDIAN RAGA NOW: Kishore Kumar Hmmm. Listening to a collection of Kumar’s songs as I type this, and he’s really not that bad. I’m impressed! Here’s the linky I found to the collection on YouTube: https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G_UUDdzHiQ

Sweet Memories – Something divine! The Authoress takes us back to a time of taking nectar from flowers, similar in some respects to sampling the honeysuckles here in the States. Fun stuff!

SBPnB from Patreon January Suresh tries to woo a girl with false claims of wealth, claims which catch up with him, destroying any hope of marriage to her. Honesty isn’t just a policy, nor merely a tactic, but a way to avoid embarrassing oneself.

The theme for this month is…Space! Here are seven poems in seven styles on a variety of astronomical and astrophysical topics, from stars being born to worlds dying as their sun sheds its outer layers and consumes its children. Good stuff!

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...

Scott Hastie, new face in Agnishatdal!

  Scott Hastie is a full-time Scottish born writer, based in the UK - he lives and works in tranquil surroundings in the English countryside, some twenty miles north of London. Primarily a poet, Scott also has had one novel - 'Reunion' published, as well as several lavishly illustrated local history books. Ten of his books remain in print today - principally his two early signature volumes of poetry: 'Selected Poetry' & 'New Poetry', first published in the 1990's - together with showcases for newer equally distinctive work, such as the beautiful and soulful 'Meditations' first published in the Autumn of 2013. Scott's current poetry is very much a positive and sparkling affirmation of human potential, with a growing emphasis on spiritual awareness. Given the impact of this more recent output and its fast growing cross-cultural popularity around the world, a much more definitive and comprehensive hardback collection of al...

Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 critique by SB

  Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 https://gumroad.com/l/Agbdb https://shoptly.com/i/buji By your good old editor! Few words about the works of my much cherished authors. So the critiques will be honest, short and sweet! Kalipuja by Labanya: What a beauty. It captured the purity and beauty of Kalipuja perfectly. Will Bengal shine again by saptarchi : This question haunts all Bengalis that love their culture! Things have improved a bit under TMC but with saffron brigade’s eyes glued on Bengal the hearts are fluttering! If they ever come to power that will be the darkest day for Bengal. Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 7: Another piece of hilarious conversation between those who have created human beings and their boss. I wonder how human beings would have looked if they had feathers! Faithmark by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Quite an interesting story, well, instant reward for listening to a holy man. Hope he won’t become greedy and ruin the bless...
