Tuesday Posts and Food for Thought

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

More things are returning to normal than earlier, more people are making plans for the future than earlier and more eyes are brighter than earlier, all of which are good things.

In that spirit of cautious optimism of the past month, I made some plans of writing more short fiction in 2021 than earlier :). 2020 taught us that plans don’t always go, well, as per plan, but then, that doesn’t stop us from making them, isn’t it? So we make them and do what we can.

What that means is that I will write more Jigneshbhai and Swami stories (coffee conversations and other slices of life), and more non-J&S, general short stories over the next few months.

I plan to post one piece of short fiction every Tuesday at 4.30 PM IST starting 09 Feb on my blog. You should get a simple notification email when it is posted if you have subscribed (if not, check and fill the box on the side bar or footer of this post). So keep a watch for it. In case you don’t see it by end of Tuesday, check your spam folder. If you still don’t find it, let me know. So, that’s the plan. Let us see how it goes.

One more update is that I published a short Jigneshbhai and Swami book called “Food for Thought” in January. When Swami, the impatient bloke with a heart of gold, and Jigneshbhai, his wise, calm friend and advisor get together to talk over coffee, the questions don’t stop and the answers keep coming.

If you followed my blog earlier, you may find the setting of the coffee conversations between Jigneshbhai and Swami in this book familiar (not to forget the wealthy, old man creeping in with his pearls of wisdom). This book is a collection of 50 such thought-provoking coffee conversations. It is available now in Kindle format: (click below)

Food for Thought

If you read the coffee conversations in the book, (or the Tuesday posts that start on 09 Feb), let me know by email how you find them. Better still, post a review on Amazon or leave a comment on the blog.

Thanks a lot for your time and attention. Happy Reading -Ranjit Kulkarni
