Cathy’s Kitchenette : #FridayFictioneers
In Cathy’s kitchenette, the pots and pans, the colanders and rolling pin hang loosely suspended, from a rack on the ceiling. They make for a unique sight, always grabbing eyeballs.
Six Months into 2019 and I…: #WordlessWednesday #ZombieBlogHop
…lost and gained some Lost my precious furry child, Cotton; but gained a bundle of love and sharp energy, in Mishka. Lost weight as the winters wrapped into spring, but gained weight in summers. Thanks to fresh, delicious home cooked meals, and my love for sweets. My winter metabolism leans towards losing weight and summer metabolism towards gaining. Yes, I’m one-of-a-kind ! 😉 Lost myself to the bountiful nature that grows and flourishes boundlessly around us,…
Is Blogging Worth It? : #Musings #GuestPost #Blogiversary
is blogging worth it? : Damyanti Biswas A huge thanks to Natasha for inviting me to her blog on the week she completes two years on Natasha Musing. Lately, a lot of bloggers have begun to feel a sense of hopelessness at the direction the blogiverse is taking: more paid posts, more reciprocal exchanges of comments and social media sharing, more appearance than reality, more conflict than community. I disagree.
Why Have I Been AWOL? : #MondayMusings #MondayBlogs
“It’s not enough to be busy, so are the ants. The question is, what are we busy about?” – Henry David Thoreau Yes, I have been awol from my blog for way too long. What on earth is awol? Absent without leave. You might be wondering what’s eating into my love for blogging. Well, a few things. Here in India we manage to find ample time to engage in our passion, work and hobbies, if we have good helping hands…
Thank You, Babi: #WriteBravely
Thank You, Babi: #WRITEBRAVELY #WRITETRIBEFESTIVALOFWORDSJUNE2018 My Dearest Babi, I dedicate a few lines to you, on this monsoon day. The sun is playing a constant game of hide and seek, while the clouds outstretch their arms in a stoic cover of grey. The muggy air looks on undeterred as nature performs a spectacle of sorts. It’s a good day to be thankful, for you should know how deeply indebted I am to you. Babi, thank you for believing in…
{J} is for Just Like That: #AtoZChallenge
{J} is for Just Like That Just like that, the month of April descended upon us. A quarter of a year already gone by! Wow! What were we thinking? No, I’m not going to use the cliché, “Time flies”. It’s way too overrated. So how have you utilised your last three months? Did your year begin with a bang, or did all the pages of your life go fluttering away in different directions? Either which way, I’m sure you will…
Nurturing: #MondayMusings #WOTY
My #MondayMusings is late by a few days, but I’m traveling and I’m trying my best to be as “nurturing” as can be. After all that’s the Word of the Year #WOTY for me. The amazing, Corinne of Write Tribe suggested we all have a Word of the Year, and I thought it was a brilliant idea. I was unable to participate in the prompt on time, but then since I want to have a word to follow through in 2018, it…
Taking a Writing Break: #MondayMusings
I started blogging in December last year and ever since there’s been no looking back. Read: I have not taken a single writing break. I write religiously if not every day, but every other day. After all writing like I’ve said in the past, has proved to be the “elixir to my parched soul.”
My Precious Treasure: #WriteTribe #WritingBravely
The most precious treasure I believe I have been bestowed upon with is “life” itself. Without this life I would not have the innumerable treasures that form a part of my life. It’s my birthday month and what better time to give gratitude for this beautiful treasure of life that I received from my parents, many, many moons back.
A Getaway to Creative Wonderland: #WanderlustWednesday
It’s a cloudy Sunday morning. But the sun, though hiding behind the rain pregnant clouds, steals in a shower of golden glow upon me- or is it a creative glow? I’m blissfully unaware of the fact that this will be an eventful day; packed in a mean, scintillating punch.
