Exciting Writing Project To Participate - Malabika Ray Choudhury's Blog

About Malabika Ray Choudhury

(Show Details...)

Reading and Creative Writing are my passions from a very young age. After spending many years of teaching as my profession, finally I am devoting myself to my passions - Poetry, Singing, and Art. I also write short stories, long stories, memoirs, cooking diary...and work on translations of poems from my home-language, Bengali, a regional language in India.

My early years were spent in India, and some later years in the Middle East - finally settled in Toronto, Canada. Writing comes first, but I also learn, practise and enjoy music and art. I am an avid reader from my early childhood - read both classic and modern writers - from Iliad, Odyssey and Shakespeare to P.G. Wodehouse, to Elena Ferrante and Kazuo Ishiguro. The book which is always on my desk is Gitanjali, the collection of spiritual songs by Rabindranath Tagore, the Nobel-laureate Poet of India.

Poetry is an expression of thoughts, feelings and reflections. Some of my unique life-experiences get expressed in my poems and short stories. I attempt to express my reflections and thoughts with creativity and depth - poetic flow and elegance are my goals. At present I am working on a memoir which covers my family's history and my life in three different countries with rich and varied cultures.

I write equally in two languages - in English, and in Bengali, which is a regional language in the eastern part of India. I have translated a few famous Bengali poems, mainly by Rabindranath Tagore and Jibanananda Das, in English. My book of translation is available on amazon, being published in August, 2023. In the beginning of 2023, I also wrote a short novel in Bengali, called "Pahar Amay Dake" - it would be "Mountains are calling me" in English. This book has been published in Kolkata, India, by Karukatha Publishers, on my birthday in 2023.

I create videos with my own poems and poems by famous writers, and also create audio-books from English and Bengali literature... created my own channel on You Tube, and uploaded a few songs, rendered by myself.

I work on a few forms of rare art - eggshell decorations, copper-tooling and batik are some of them.

Exciting Writing Project To Participate

Blog Posted:6/12/2024 7:50:00 AM

Dear Soupers,

Today I have an exciting news to share with you. I have been selected by Mississauga (Ontario, Canada - where I live) Arts Council to participate in a memoir-writing project which will officially commence from 1st of July and continue till 24th of December, 2024.

I am really thankful for this opportunity and excited to be a part of this amazing project. As far as I understand, there will be ten participants, and each one of us will be provided with a mentor, who is an established author, to guide us throughout the journey of completing a memoir.

We will be allowed to prepare three drafts of our document in six months, and then the final document will be edited by the chief editor, and hopefully handed to a publisher. Copyright remains with us. The best part of the project is, we will be able to connect with established authors and publishers.

My Dear Friends, I am assuming...undoubtedly this project will keep me busy with writing for these six months, and I won’t be able to participate in poetry contests as much as I want to. I am sure I will read most of the POTD poems, which I try to, and many other beautiful poems... I get inspired with!

Not sure, it may not be as gruelling as I am thinking right now…I may have enough time to stay active at our poetry site.
I will post another “Cook with me” blog for June, but probably for now, will take a break in posting the rest of the articles.

Thank you so much, Dear Friends. Wish me luck for the memoir project I am planning to embark on. Love and best wishes to you all! You are my inspiration!

Mala

Dear Krish, Thank you for your inspiring comment. This opportunity came out of the blue...but I am really excited. I have connected with my mentor, and my orientation meeting with him, is coming very soon. I will be busy, but it's good to be meaningfully busy! Hope I can accomplish creating the draft of a memoir in six months. I feel fortunate to receive support from many of you at this site - very special thanks to you. Warmest wishes ~ Mala

Thank you so much, Dear Suzette. You are right - this is a golden opportunity for me indeed, and true - it is a specialized genre! We will have mostly virtual workshops with our mentors, so it won't matter if sometimes during this period I am travelling. I feel very excited about this project, especially because I have the chance to portray and express the unique experiences I had in my childhood, and in three culturally different countries I lived. So much to say!!! Warm wishes~
