My name is Cinnamon by Vikas Prakash Joshi

This is the first book by the Author for YA and Children. A must for every School, Library or Book Clubs. Author Vikas Prakash Joshi had a dream to write a Book when he was very young and becomes a successful Bestseller. You will enjoy MNIC quite a bit for its Marathi/Indian/Bengali flavour, incorporated in many places in My Name is Cinnamon.  It is also universal in its story techniques and messages, while very rooted in local flavour. More importantly, it focuses on adoption and draws upon real life experiences of adopted kids and parents. It is sold across India, copies purchased in Sikkim to Punjab to Surat, from hyderabad to Jaipur, from Delhi to Manipur to Belgaum to Tamil Nadu to California. It is also appreciated across 20 countries, and loved and appreciated by countless prominent Indian writers too. It is also illustrated very well plus an amazing cover design by eminent illustrator Niloufer Wadia.  

My Name Is Cinnamon provides a richly textured narrative of a boy trying to find his roots and place in the world. On each part of his journey, he encounters new people, new cuisines, and new adventures as he learns a lot about himself and the world around him.

While being a light-hearted and heart-warming read, the book also covers some difficult themes that are rarely explored in ­children’s and young adult literature. It is a deeply moving testament to the unceasing desire to know oneself, the unrelenting pull of familial bonds, and the power of hope, sacrifice, and love.

With his perceptive observations, vivid descriptions, and an authentic voice, the author, Vikas Prakash Joshi, weaves an immersive plot with fully realised environments and characters that are sure to stay with you for a long time. Above all, My Name Is Cinnamon is about finding your own people and accepting who you are.

In My Name Is Cinnamon, Vikas Joshi brings to life the lively tale of Cinnamon, a young boy living with his adoptive parents, who sets out to meet his birth parents in an impoverished tribal area. This emotionally sensitive topic is explored with felicity and humour, reminding us of the immense joys and painful travails of childhood. It’s a moving and uplifting book, and I wish Vikas Prakash Joshi all the best for his future writing success.’

World Health Day

The World Health Day theme 2024 is ‘My Health, My Right‘, which aims to establish the fact that health is also a human right and every individual should have access to good quality healthcare services and education. There is an art competition for the same where people can showcase the theme through their artwork.

We have ample ideas on how we can celebrate World Health Day. Why a day? It can be a routine 365 days as Health is a Prime Concern. Every human has a right to keep fit and be healthy. It’s a Choice to be made and as Gandhiji said, “You are what you eat” – Eat right, Eat healthy and let your kids choose to eat healthy.

Here are five ideas to follow

EXERCISE :

1.Make it a routine – walk, cycle, jog, yoga, dance or what exercise that makes you sweat and feel good. Exercising and adding physical activity to your daily routine is one of the easiest ways to enhance your overall health and boost immunity and cardiovascular health.

2. Use Copper Bottles and stop the Plastic ! Stay Hydrated. The benefits of copper is that it is aiding the digestion process, stimulating thyroid function, improving brain function and preventing anaemia.

3.Eat Right. Eat Organic Food. Add Millets to your diet.Switching to A2 ghee and organic honey can be highly beneficial and the environment. In addition, adding superfoods like jowar, foxtail millet and Bajra benefits  your overall health and increases your immunity to fight different illnesses.

4. Avoid Junk – stop the fried snacks. This is a healthy alternative to balance diet. These are the cheat food and unhealthy for all.

5. Practice mindful activities – Reading, Yoga, breathing exercises  exercises that not only help reduce stress but also improve focus, and enhance your emotional well-being. 

A MESSAGE TO MOMS : On this World Health Day, Give yourself and your family and Kids – Right to be Healthy. Stop the Junk, Stop the packet food – outside food as priority – Set the Limits to such snacks and food – go for healthy food cooked at home – clean and fresh. Go stress free and your kids and family will be free from stress and anxiety. Exercise and go forMindful activities.

Keep limits to TV, Mobile, ipad use and free for open fresh air. Technology will stay to demand 24×7 but it is in our hands to limit the use.

Just think – when did you last see the sun, moon and the stars? When do you enjoy nature ?

Choice is Yours. Happy World Health Day

My Health is My Right. Right for everyone, everywhere.

Diseases and disasters loom large as causes of death and disability. Conflicts are devastating lives, causing death, pain, hunger and psychological distress.

It is our Responsibility to take care of our own Health – This day, 7th April is a reminder that we are humans and god has sent us on Earth for specific purpose. So, as long as we live, nurture ourselves and people we love in our family by providing Health Diet, Safe Environment and Healthy Mind minus Stress, anxiety and diseases.

My Passion Project

My 4 Paintings finally on the Living Room Wall. Everything goes with a Plan. Only Life doesn’t!

The home rennovation took over four months and when finally done, it is a timeline that involves Past, Present and Future. Struggling to live Grief alongside the vast, dark and unfamiliar space they left behind, Music and Paintings played a vital role to stay calm and meditative. Its been a mysterious experience that involves incredibly nuanced dynamics. Humans are complicated, and relationships create systems as entangled as balls of yarn. And when loss happens, it’s as though someone cuts your ball of yarn clear in half, leaving a hundred loose and lonely ends. Everything Changes – not for Good or Bad but Happens as destiny calls for, I presume

Strange Habits of Famous Writers

It’s Ok – Writers should be Strange ! A simple writing habit changed my life as an Author of Guardian of Angels and life is ever on a fast track lane performing roles. Reading is my super power and so is writing – writing Contents and Book Reviews. My habit revolves around using my Library – reference books or just hug my Books cupboard and writing comes naturally. Another habit has always been Listening – Listening to Western Pop in the background,  speed thoughts and writing comes automatically ! And I Admit, I ain’t famous but sure inspired with many well known and famous Authors who had wierd or strange habits that hooked them to writing and even cope with the writers block. Every writer has a strategy as they pen words. A piece of a genius has remarkable skills and intelligence. Passion plays a role and so do habits – be it weird or die hard habits !

Check this Infographic : 

20 Quirks and Strange Habits – The weird side of Famous Writers :

James Joyce

James Joyce preferred writing while lying down on his stomach. He used large blue pencils and wore a white coat while writing. All of those habits, however, weren’t the result of weirdness. Most of them were due to his poor eyesight. Large pencils allowed him to see what he was writing, while the coat reflected more light on a page.

Fact: He wrote most of “Finnegans Wake” using pieces of crayon and cardboard.

Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf would write every morning for two and a half hours. Not weird enough? She used a desk that was 3.5 feet tall and had an angled top. This allowed Woolf to evaluate her work both from a distance and up-close. This quirk was sparked by Virginia’s rivalry with her sister, Vanessa, who painted standing. Thus, Virginia didn’t want to be outdone.

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka used quite a radical method of boosting his creativity. He exhausted himself. At first, he worked 12-hour shifts but later was promoted. However, with all the new responsibilities and other activities (exercising, spending time with family), he usually started writing at around 11 p.m. and could go on up until 6 a.m.

Truman Capote

Truman Capote was quite superstitious. Which bordered on having a slight weirdness to it. Truman never started or finished a piece of work on a Friday. He also changed his hotel room if the numbers added up to 13. Another superstition: there were never more than two cigarette butts in Capote’s ashtray. He kept the extra ones in pockets of his coat.

Victor Hugo

To make himself meet a deadline, Victor Hugo used rather radical methods. He started to write “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” in the fall of 1830 and wanted to finish it by February 1831. To do that, he bought a bottle of ink and locked himself in a room. He didn’t even have any clothes except a gray shawl and a knitted outfit to lower the temptation of going out.

Fact: Victor Hugo wanted to title his work “What Came Out of a Bottle of Ink” but later came up with the different title. By the way, he finished it even before the deadline.

Edgar Allan Poe

Edgar Allan Poe was one of those authors who extremely loved their pets. But Poe took it to another level. He loved his cat Catterina so much that he considered it his guardian. To make matters even more mysterious, rumors say that Catterina died two weeks after Poe’s death.

Flannery O’Connor

She had a strong affection for domestic poultry. It started from having a chicken in childhood and developed into a collection of turkeys, pheasants, a quail, and a duck. One time, she even mail-ordered for six peacocks, a peahen, and four peachicks.

Anthony Burgess

The author of “A Clockwork Orange” had a curious way of overcoming hard or boring tasks. If he had to make a detailed description, he picked up a dictionary, opened a random page, and used words on that page to complete his task.

Fact: Burgess himself admits that his novel “MF” contains the result of such a trick. He used words from R.J. Wilkinson’s Malay-English Dictionary to describe a hotel vestibule.

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller had a habit that was even more on the weird side than the other writers mentioned here. He left apples in a drawer of his desk and let them spoil on purpose. The reason was he liked the smell they produced, and it inspired him somehow.

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie also used apples to fuel her inspiration. But in a more usual way. Which was still a bit strange, nonetheless. She loved to eat apples while in the bathtub and examining murder photos.

Alexandre Dumas

Dumas had a quirk related to color-coding. He used a particular shade of blue paper on which to write his fiction. For poetry, he had yellow paper. And Dumas’s articles were written on pink paper. Once, he ran out of blue paper. He was forced to use a cream-colored pad instead, which he thought negatively influenced that work of fiction.

William Faulkner

Faulkner loved to drink a lot of whiskey while writing. He developed this habit after meeting Sherwood Anderson. They used to go out a lot when they were both living in New Orleans.

Fact: Faulkner himself was quite pleased with this habit. He even once said, “And I thought then, if that was the life it took to be a writer, that was the life for me.”

Lewis Carroll

While sharing Virginia Woolf’s habit of working at a standing desk, Lewis Carroll also preferred writing with a specific color of ink. Purple. While working as a mathematics teacher at Oxford, Carroll used purple ink to correct students’ work. So, he continued using it when writing fiction.

Ernest Hemingway

As the author himself said, he wrote 500 words a day. He did this mostly in the morning to avoid the midday heat.

Fact: In his letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald, Hemingway said that he writes one page of a masterpiece, which he keeps, to 91 pages of garbage, which he promptly puts in the wastebasket.

Gertrude Stein

She found inspiration in routine tasks, no matter where she was. For instance, she could start writing sitting in the car while her partner was at a store. Busy Parisian streets and traffic inspired her greatly.

Vladimir Nabokov

Nabokov used index cards on which to write his works. He stored them in a slim box and could rearrange them at any time. This allowed Nabokov to write his works non-sequentially. He could also have a couple of such cards under his pillow in case an idea suddenly came into his head. So, he was always ready to write it down.

Jane Austen

Jane Austen was an author who cared deeply about her characters. She cared so much that she imagined their future lives even after finishing a novel. Austen’s nephew, Edward Austen-Leigh, wrote in A Memoir of Jane Austen, “She would, if asked, tell us many little particulars about the subsequent career of some of her people.”

Honoré de Balzac

Faulkner wasn’t the only one who liked his drinks. Honoré de Balzac found inspiration for writing his works in drinking coffee. So, he could consume up to 50 cups of it a day.

Fact: Studies suggest that Balzac almost hadn’t slept at all while writing “La Comédie Humaine.” Obviously, the reason for that was the amount of coffee he was drinking.

Arthur Conan Doyle

Despite creating a character with the strongest logic, the author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle himself wasn’t that rational. He dedicated himself to spiritualism after the death of his son in World War I, and even tried to speak with the dead. He also believed that his friend Harry Houdini had magical powers, no matter how Houdini tried to prove him wrong.

Dan Brown

Brown believes the best cure for writer’s block is hanging upside down. He said this so-called therapy helps him to relax and concentrate on writing. He also keeps an hourglass on his desk and puts his work aside each hour to do stretches, push-ups, and sit-ups.

MOTHER AND SON.

I would give my life to have you back,said his Mum
I know you would, said her son.
I cry each night for you, said his Mum
And I catch all of your tears said her son
I pray for the day that I can see you again,said his Mum
Close your eyes and you can see me,said her son
I am always just a dream away………….You are the first person who loved me,and you are the first person I loved.
You were always there when I needed you,and you always knew when I needed a hug.
I am here for you now, mum in your heart and in your soul.
I did not take your heart with me
Instead I left mine with you to hold.
One day I will take your handand lead you to paradise,but until then my beautiful mother,when you want to see meyou only need to close your eyes.
I am always just a dream away…..Just take care of my Dad, My Son and My WifeThey need you the most !
