I Am Launching An E-Magazine!
Presenting to you... Bojra Magazine!
Yes, you read that right!
I am launching my first-ever e-magazine!
I have to thank author Dean Wesley Smith for this e-magazine idea.
While reading his non-fiction books for writers and researching his work, I noticed he publishes a series of magazines containing articles, short stories and a complete novel!
That gave me the idea to make a collection of my works so far in the year and publish it as an e-magazine. Not everyone gets to read my posts the moment they are published. This will solve that problem. With my e-magazines, you can read my essays whenever you want.
So here's me presenting to you… Bojra Magazine (Vol 1. Issue 1. - April 2023)
Bojra Magazine will be published tri-annually, i.e., every four months - April, August and December.
Each e-magazine will contain all the works I have written and published over the four months in each quartet, plus a few exclusive essays and short stories.
These will be further divided into four parts, namely -
Writing and Creative Life
Personal Essays
Dear Writer Letters
Short Stories
Here's what we have in Bojra Magazine (Vol 1. Issue 1. - April 2023) -
In Writing and Creative Life, we have the complete Soul Writer-Social Writer series (one of my most engaged essays), writing lessons I learnt in 2022, and further diving into what it means to be a writer and to be writing.
In Personal Essays, I am recapping my 2022 - books, quotes, lessons, movies and shows. I am also sharing lessons I have learned so far in my life - an annual birthday special I write to remind myself that I am human and ever-evolving. And some other musings that have been roaming around in my head and heart, and now in print as well.
In Dear Writer Letters, we have personal letters of motivation and inspiration for my fellow writers. This is Substack-exclusive content that I offer only as a paid newsletter. But here, you'll have complete access to it.
Writing can be a lonely job, and the lack of support can snuff out the dream of becoming a writer even before it gets a chance to breathe. With my Dear Writer Letters, I hope to provide that support. I hope to help lost, confused, frustrated writers connect with their writer soul and enjoy every writing session.
I hope to keep that writing dream alive in you.
Think of me as your Writer's Therapist.
In Short Stories, I am sharing two of my favourite short stories I have ever written. One has a suspenseful air, while the other is an ode to my grandfather but with a twist. They are available nowhere else, so you're in luck today.
As with my content online, I hope you're inspired and entertained by my words in this e-magazine.
The first issue of the e-magazine has almost finished its production. It will be ready for its month-end publication soon.
Here's where I would like to make an offer to benefit us both.
If you subscribe to my paid Substack publication, you will get free access to the e-magazine 2 weeks before the general public.
Furthermore, if you subscribe by April 18th, 2023, you'll get 20% off on the first year. That means instead of ₹4000 per year (approx. $48/year), you'll have to pay ₹3200 per year for the first year.
Wait! There's more!
If you'd like to
get free access to the e-magazine 2 weeks before the general public,
have your name will be mentioned in the "Special Thanks" section of the e-magazine,
be the first one to know about the publication of my first non-fiction book for writers (the draft of which I just finished),
plus, have exclusive offers and bonuses I am planning for the future.
Then, please consider subscribing to my paid Substack publication under the Guardian Angel tier for ₹8000 per year (approx. $96/year).
Charging for my words is my way of asking for your help to help me become a full-time writer. For a long time, I have been that person who cringes at the thought of asking for money. But I now realise I have to put some charge to my hard work and worth. Your financial investment will help me thrive as a writer and create better essays and books to help and entertain you. So it's a win-win for both of us.
Once you have subscribed to my Substack publication, either under the Annual tier or the Guardian Angel tier, I'll inform you of the publication date of the first issue of the e-magazine.
Again, the last date to get the 20% off on the first year of the Substack subscription is valid until April 18th, 2023.
As always, thank you for your continuous support.🙏
Your Friend,
