Well corona is getting more and more comfortable in the country with each passing week, so, we can quite guess now that we will have to get used to its existence for a few years at the least! What a pity! In the end nature showed again she can snuff us out anytime any day!

Indie Author Speaks 12: I too wish I had read this article when I was in school. It truly is a good way to motivate yourself to keep a tab on your goals, distribute them in weekly, monthly and annual categories and then see what you have done with them at the end of each period, or a little before ending!

FTQFS: I really don’t believe that every human being is worthy or capable of love. So romance should be targeted and it should be handled with decency.

Techbabble: True, MS Word is becoming erratic and bossy and many a times annoying!

Lockdown biased and Kolkata blues: Agree with both. Lockdown is followed by only conscientious and intelligent people, the rest are following it only if they are scared that cops will get them. As for the dismal condition of Kolkata, Bengal, India, World… human civilization… peas of the same pod!

SOS: Life indeed is a very beautiful journey filled with surprise joys!

WOW: Last month’s WOW is repeated this month, it indeed is quite good.

History of India: quite interesting to see Indian history through the eyes of an non-Indian, can’t say I can understand all that they are saying or believe, but fun anyways.

Misunderstood: Interesting perspective, terrorism has given Muslims such a bad reputation that it has absolutely tarnished their image. Even though anyone can guess that huge majority of Muslims have nothing to do with terrorism yet terrorists have become the icon of their culture!

Fun and Frolic section:

His life worth living by Pat Ritter: This one sounds like a great read! The true experiences of a person who has lived through world war 2, Pat is a great storyteller so the book must be amazing!

Urania’s Table 1: Sounds fascinating!

Pikatron November 2018 critique by Editor: Will have to get the newsletter from Agni.

An open letter to horror movie makers: Well, they truly are running out of ideas and the capacity to scare people with story or direction. That is for sure. Wonder if they will recover after Corona jolt! Maybe they can use this break to write and plan great ghost stories!

Indian Raga Now:

Shobha Gurtu- She is quite good.

Geeta Bali- She was adorable.

Did you hear that thing about Morgans: Hugh Grant is really good in comedy roles. This movie is hilarious!

Boisakh Shot: lovely photos!

Youtube channel: Already checked them all out.

Storytime:

Tale 1 from Urania’s Table: Loved the sci-fi fantasy a lot.

Jamai Shashthi: This one too is certainly going to get devoured by Corona!

Theme: Angels- pretty paintings.

The cartoon Mr Stick: Good point, what is the use of staying indoors if a makeshift shop is opened right outside your house and its customers are thronging there!

In the end quite enjoyed the Ezine, and its colourful sketches/paintings specially they are refreshing and pretty!

That is it I guess! See you again next month, 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!

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
