• Dhaka Diaries : Anchoring myself

  

  After a month here, I finally picked up the paintbrush last night. I love painting and yet, I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I have all that I need – the art supply, the table to paint on and even the easel, which I picked up at the local market even before I moved […]

• NaPoWriMo Day 15 – Mold of Envy

  

  Finally, here’s our daily (optional) prompt. This one may seem counter-intuitive, but today I’d like to challenge you to write a poem about something you have absolutely no interest in. This isn’t quite the same, I think, as something you’re indifferent to. For example, I have absolutely no interest in investment strategy. Anytime anyone tries to tell […]

• A surprise gift from a friend

  

  This post was to come out much earlier, but I’ve been swamped with loads of things. Anyway, I received this beautiful gift from a friend I know through NaPoWriMo and then WordPress. Manja Mexi, from the blog Embarrassment of Riches, who is an avid photographer and manages to find and share the beauty around her […]
