IWW Members' Publishing Successes For The Week Ending 1/14/24

Kitaab accepted my short story "All Creatures Great and Small" (2,000 words) for publication. Kitaab is a journal and publishing house based out of Singapore, geared to South Asian writers. They don't pay, but they do give published authors a one-year subscription to the site, worth 10 Singapore dollars.

The Hindu Open Page published my article on doing less. They changed the title, though, from "The Importance of Doing Nothing," and introduced a few typos and erroneous hyphens.

I believe in the core message: our health and the planet's would both benefit if we worked less, produced less, consumed less, and enjoyed life's simple pleasures more.

Three of my works were published in the last month:

Never was it an easy journey, initially posted on my blog, was reprinted by Free Flash Fiction.

The Case of Oh, Raghav or Raghav Who?, based on a prompt that every end has a beginning, was published by Penmancy.

And Then It Was Done was published by Kitaab. They Have a free readership for a week. Hope it stays longer.

This month, a piece on building one's adversity quotient was published by Mint Lounge. I had written this in the backdrop of too many students' suicide, but the editor felt it should be made into a general piece.
