The fourth birthday of Agnijaat was on 17th July! May you live to be a hundred!

The ezine starts with reminder of upcoming Rakhi and it is really early in August this year, so thanks!

Indie Author Speaks 14: Blurb writing certainly is an art. Few can master it.

FTQFS: Agreed, smiling is a good habit, if you are surrounded by nasty grouches smile in heart.

Techbabble: Agreed again! Can’t they do something about these slippery laptops and tablets? The smart-phones are slippery too but we always use cover on them something we can’t do with laptops or tablets. So for God’s sake use materials that are not slippery!


Corona diaries and Kolkata blues: Covid 19 certainly is proving the incompetence of Indian administration again and again. They can’t handle it from any angle, the spread, the healthcare or taking care of needs of those struck by it and its effects.

SOS: Rest certainly is often snatched away by hyperactive brain.

Intriguing Tales: Arrogance certainly is shortcut to fall, sages left us some hints - Gods can fall because of arrogance, forget about men.

History of India: this month is about geographical division of India. Trip down memory lane! We had to memorize these things!

My Pen: First line of defense: It is a harsh truth, the way we treat the pillars of society in India is a real shame! We will feel ashamed if we think about the way they are treated, not because we are poor nation but because our elected employees don’t care about them or us, all they care about is their own bank-balance.

Fun and Frolic section:

The proposition by Pat Ritter: This one sounds like a nice story again. Hope the ending is positive.

SBPnB Book 7 ocean blue: Sounds like a beautiful book with lots of illustrations.

Pikatron January 2019 critique by Editor: Will have to get the newsletter from Agni.



Dr. Sleep: Well, horror movies these days really feel like rants of depraves. This one is no exception I guess.

Indian Raga Now:

Girija Devi- She is awesome! Heard quite a few of her songs in YouTube, will try more.

Marty Robbins- great singer!

Strange and deadly occurrences: Will have to check out the movie in YouTube.

Ashar Shot: lovely photos! That bird’s eyes looked like eyes of cyborgs! Ha! Maybe it was a spy in nature! A bird with google glass!

Youtube channel: Already checked them all out.

Storytime: He is back from Patreon: Loved the story, especially the ending.

Gayatri Jayanti: Well we Hindus certainly love to celebrate! I did not even know about this festival.

Theme: Dragons- really cute paintings.

The cartoon Mr Stick: Sad reality. The governments since independence have done nothing to improve the condition of poor of this country in legal ways, instead they turn their face when they turn into hoodlum and do illegal things as long as they harass common public it is fine with governments. Easy way out!

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

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

Agnimalya July 2018 in patreon for my patrons

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
