Agnijaat Ashar begins with a beautiful sketch on Ganga’s descent to earth.


Indie Author Speaks: Good post, Sharmishtha referred a few free review sites.


FTQFS: A million dollar quote for envious people!


Techbabble: Very true, any professional should not claim that his/her referred product is as good as another if it is not! It will spread really bad word of mouth for his/her opinions.


India Now: Kingdom of fallen – She is right, the audacity and laziness of Kolkata garbage collectors is amazing! No wonder the city is full of disposed garbage everywhere! As for atrocities against Shudras it is common, but not in Bengal, and the Shudras should concentrate on getting what is government giving out to them “huge amount of quotas everywhere” instead of complaining about their horrible condition, if they start utilizing those “quotas” they will rise in society!


SOS: Is not it true! Yes! Nurture your own heart too!


Intriguing Tales: Some people really don’t get it, they chase their own death!


History of India: Interesting piece about entry of Aryans in India. These are the scriptures that make you grumble about old Indians, why did not they kept written records! Grr!


My Pen: of journalists 3: Indian mainstream media has shown that too many Indians are ready to sell anything and everything for money. That is a scary society to live in.


Fun and Frolic section:


cute pic for the section, another cute hedgehog! It was followed by a pretty painting of two sunflowers and a beautiful photograph of moon.


Prnic Poetry by Scott Hastie: Mr. Hastie’s poetry is really fabulous. I am becoming quite a fan of his amazing style.


Release from stasis by Graham Clingbine: The cover is elegant, the story sounds disturbing.


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


Behind the scenes : Agreed. Sometimes the peek behind the scene absolutely destroys the cover!


Indian Raga Now:


Gyanendra Prasad Goswami- Never heard his name before, will have to check out on YouTube.


SPOTLIGHT ON- Cary Grant- Now that is one lady killer from head to toe.


Window to West – News of the world: I wonder if the young generation of Hollywood cares or simply is busy counting money churning out different stories from same stories that the older generation is still making quality movies.


Jyeshtha Shots: Four lovely shots, loved the squirrel.


Youtube channel: Already checked them all out.


Storytime: poetry from Patreon: beautiful message.


Gayatri Jayant: Another interesting festival.


Theme: lillies- Seven pretty paintings. I love these flowers. They show up after first healthy splash of rain in many gardens outside Kolkata.


The cartoon Mr Stick: Another dose of horrific reality.


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


By the way if you see any other Labanya in Sharmishtha’s social circle that will not be me. I don’t use my pen name [Labanya] in social media, use the real one.

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...

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...

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...
