Agnijaat Poush begins with republic day greeting, a beautiful greeting. It is high time Indians should start talking about their rights in this country that is heading straight towards autocracy.


Indie Author Speaks: good tips on editing your own works. This is something we all can use, writers or not.


FTQFS: Getting rid of envious women means living in a place where women don’t exist!


Techbabble: manual vs. auto mode- will keep in mind if I ever buy a digital camera!


Corona diaries 5: Feku and co. is leading this country straight to hell. It is interesting though how casual Indians are about all this. Maybe, they have finally got the political party they deserve!


SOS: Well said, jealousy truly can be felt, even if it is hidden behind fake smile and compliments.


Intriguing Tales: Light- Ah we grew up hearing the story of Mother Goddess Durga’s birth, and we never grow tired of this story. It is priceless!


History of India: Interesting piece from India’s past.


My Pen: wake up India 5: We really need a brand new party led by a good leader and followed by decent people. Maybe in an interim election, if this party stays in power for another four years India will never recover from damages it will cause.


Fun and Frolic section:


The suffragette by Pat Ritter: Pat’s books sound more like historical novels. This one is about women’s fight for the right to vote. Glad that Indian politicians were far more liberal than many when it comes to women but hey! We are now snatching away rights from women in 21st century, like what religion they will follow or who they will marry!


Sharmishtha Basu's Pen n Brush book 7 ocean blue: Sounds like beautiful book of paintings and verses.


Pikatron July 2019 critique by Editor: Will have to get the newsletter from Troy or Agni.


10 horror movies I hated: Keep them in mind if I watch horror movies, I am not a big fan of horror movies, most are boring!


Indian Raga Now: Amirbai Karnataki- discovered few of her songs in YouTube, she certainly was really gifted.


SPOTLIGHT ON- Glenn Campbell- He certainly had a magical voice, his songs are very touching too!


Window to West – Abbott and Costello meets Jekyll and Hyde: I wonder why more movies were not made with this couple. Maybe they did not showed up in India or YouTube. These movies are simply awesome!


Poush Shots: Five cute shots from home-front, they are lovely.


Youtube channel: Already checked them all out.


Storytime: The passage from SBPnB Patreon: Sounds like an interesting fantasy story is about to begin.


Sakat Chauth: Learned about a new festival.


Theme: Gargoyle- Seven beautiful paintings.


The cartoon Mr Stick: very true. Things would have been different had covid-19 been covid-18! Politicians would have been serving the public hands and feet!


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

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...
