Things to Know

This is NOT the Kinaara magazine. This is a journal where people associated with Kinaara write down updates of what they have been doing. Bookmark this blog, follow it, add it to your Favourites and all that if you're interested in keeping track of what's going on behind the scenes at Kinaara. 


WHAT WE WILL DO HERE::

 - Put up calls for submission for individual editions.
- Put up notices for events/programmes as and when they take place.
- Write down reports of the said events/programmes after they have taken place.
- Publish our monthly newsletter.
- Ask for your opinion/suggestions on different issues. 
- Keep a record of any other work we are doing.


WHAT WE WILL NOT DO HERE::

- Accept your work. All submissions should be directed to kinaaramail@gmail.com.
- Publish your work. That's what the magazine is for, right?
- Critique your work. Please don't leave us blog links or copy-paste your writing in the comment section. Kinaara is not a critiquing service. People get paid for that kind of work.
- Accept random contributors. The only contributors to this blog are people who are doing some kind of work for Kinaara and need to tell our readers about what they're doing. If you want to make any announcement, get in touch with us at kinaaramail@gmail.com.

Meeting 4

Date: 15. 06. 2009
Location: The office of the Dean of Arts and later Bonami (Monida's Canteen), Jadavpur University, Kolkata.
Time: 1 pm - 2 pm

Attended: Monidipa Mondal, Rohit K. Dasgupta, Anomitra Biswas.


Happenings:

We have our meetings at the unlikeliest places, though Monida's Canteen over a plate of dubious chicken fried rice I think is favourite.


This was a good-news meeting. Things announced at this meeting are:

- We have got permission to use the Seagull Bookstore for our magazine launch on July 1.
- We are having a panel discussion at the launch. The discussion topic is 'Representing the Global South Asian.'
- We have also got confirmations from two panelists to speak at the discussion: Samantak Das and Kavita Panjabi, both professors of the Comparative Literature department of Jadavpur University.


Things we discussed at this meeting are:

- contents of the July edition, this being the day of the deadline,
- submissions we have received so far for the August edition,
- the launch programme in further details - exact time, calculation of costs, where to get laptop, internet, projector, screen, furniture etc. from,
- who to invite as the other speaker(s) for the panel discussion.

    Oh my! The first of July is so soon! I hope to have something handed in for the September issue. That should be do-able. All this is great news. Good to know what's happening from so far away. Know that you all have my support.
