Buy me a coffee!

A little help from you will help me more than you can imagine! It will help a desperately struggling author, artist survive.

Situations are not in our hand, so instead of working 9 to 5 in an office, earning money through menial or mental labor which sort of sounds easier to do if you ask me when it comes to earning money! Boring, frustrating, cumbersome but you know what is expected from you to get your salary, but life won’t permit that easy way out to me so here I am desperately trying to make something out of my writing and painting.

I write, paint and photograph [for own recreation] a lot in my own independent style. I have been desperately trying to make something out of these because I don’t have any other means of income, situations won’t allow that, even though I always wanted to be a career woman.

I write whatever I feel like [poetry, story, essays etc], paint and photograph everything that impresses me and is in my capacity and then put them together as books and try selling them.

But you know how hard it is without marketing, and for marketing you have to give too much money and that is something I absolutely don’t have. I can assume that many of you supporters are here to give chance to authors/artists like me who can’t afford to market their art/passion and don’t mind trying out authors/artists you have never heard of. Actually I am desperately counting on that adventurous, generous side of you!

So, if you will kindly browse through my membership and other plans I will be truly grateful and if you decide to help even a bit I will be forever in debt.

Membership Plan

$50 [annual] Any five of Agnijaat/Agnishatdal/Agnilipi/Agnimalya/Coming Kingdom/SBPnB-

Agnijaat and Agnishatdal

are monthly English Ezines, both in English, Agnijaat contains only my creations and Agnishatdal is created by a group of authors and artists.

Agnilipi

Agnilipi will share a set of photography each month, they maybe versatile or one single topic. Do share your views after checking them out.

I am not a great photographer, let me tell you, just an amateur one armed with a point and shoot camera most of the time and am honing my skill on a DSLR lately but am far from getting satisfied with my handling it yet!

Agnimalya

Agnimalya is a book of stories, some old stories and mostly new stories are included in it. The mood depends on the stories included- that is- they are unpredictable! I try to make them as versatile as possible and sometimes throw in some flash-fictions lavishly illustrated for you!

You will have to check out a few copies to get the feel. But just as I said I try to add all genres but not in the same book, and I don’t really stick to one genre for one book mostly, maybe I will in future, but not at present. Most probably you will enjoy a dose of love in the February Issue or Durgapuja in autumn….

Agnipat

Agnipat will share a set of digital paintings each month, will decide each month the contents to be shared. If you like my clumsy paintings you will like this book.

Coming Kingdom

Coming kingdom at present is sharing stories of upcoming books, right now it is sharing stories from the books to be published (republished) in Amazon Kindle. Every month it will share few stories.

Check out the stories and share your views!

SBPnB

SBPnB is a book of illustrations mainly. As you can guess from the name the priority has been given to the illustrator inside me! I love to paint and this is the book through which I am sharing my paintings with you.

Sometimes you will get them with quotes, sometimes with poems or flash fictions. But whatever will be there the size of the words will be quite short, so that each post’s length is one page. Sometimes they may get longer but not necessarily!

For the cuppas:

If you are offering a cup or more than a cup of coffee, pick up any of the creation for each cup please! [one creation for 1 dollar], I will send it to you! If you want you can give $10 and get the one of your choice for a year, you know the math, if you want two it will be $20. Leave the name of the ebook/pdf file in your comment so I can send it to you.

Few samples for you:

The Solitary Mother

Tribute to a true mother!

paddypicasso

Roots, where do we come from, how do we achieve a compassionate heart, where do we learn about kindness, to whom do we look, whom do we reach for; who else, The Mother figure in your life. The solitary mother, carries far more than children; the early teacher, the constant presence in the life of her children, and without fail, she does her best, as everyone who is lucky, has a great mother. The light she brings, the unfailing help she gives, the example she shows, in her kindness to strangers,and her corporal acts of mercy. The most under regarded worker in the entire world. Men start wars, not solitary mothers, men start wars, her children, the victims. As the mother hen displays and many birds too, how she keeps her chicks safe, beneath her wings.

The angst, a mothers stress, the news hard to take, is there anywhere safe…

Welcome to my world…

Sign of time

paddypicasso

The signs startling, the light sparkling, is it God they ask, the light is strong. Across the world, tornadoes, floods, heat waves, crumbling buildings, little children hum, more aware than ever, there parents surprised, inside beaming with pride, the time spent with them these last sixteen months, a gift in hindsight, as they watch them grow, simply amazing.

Record heat, what is it, climate deniers in hiding, the usual mouth pieces quieter, what, in a time like these. Why the silence, what if its true, the knot inside, we have to account for ourselves, did I really, the frog in the throat, the weight inside,is this what she meant by baggage, he smiled, amen, covert identity of course, the bastards and their schemes, let them sweat, the more bull shit, the greater the humor, the angels smiles, it’s the go time, smiles aplenty,like vultures before a feast, just as…

The city of Gods

Gorgeous sketches and awesome writing! Have fun!

Equinoxio

“This is the city of Gods. I am Shiva.”

“I am Vishnu. We stay in the City of Gods. The trees guard us.”

“I am Brahma. We are the Four Gods facing east, north, west, and south in the City of Gods.”

“I was born last. I am Gautama. We sit forever on top of Mount Meru.”

“I was a prince among men. They called me Siddharta.”

“I am Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma, I am the Buddha.” (Temple of Ta-Som, in Angkor, Cambodia.)

“Some say those are the four faces of Buddha. The old folks know better: they say we are Shiva, also known as MahaDeva, the Auspicious; Vishnu, or Hari, is the Protector; Brahma is the first member of Trimurti; he is the Creator. Buddha? He is our little brother. Came long after us. He is the Enlightened.”

“The essential…

A Day at the races….

Priceless words of wisdom

paddypicasso

Two sacks of pollen on his back, the sturdy little bee, hard at work, that delicate physiology, which has to survive in our environment, the natural replaced, the bee works hard to find safe places, like the Spirit from above, that has to compete for space, with such a myriad of vices, still the bee goes, never gives up, the honey has to flow, he is loyal to his queen.

The nectar is yellow, two little spheres, the days harvest, he is top heavy, the little fella, Solomon sipped coffee, admiring the work ethic of the little creature, how nature has to work so much harder these last years, a reflection of the confusion that has set in among-st the human race. Meanwhile two pigeons sit above on the roof, he is dreaming of his mother, a day at the races, occasions she loved, they being connected to family, a…
