I spent the last few days working on an essay. It had been quite some time where I was putting the in the effort in the essay, instead of finding the motivation to write. Have I reviewed extensive material for the most nuanced takes? No. The conclusions might come off as premature-and some of them are. The things I am trying to talk about need more research, more balance, more everything. And that is the whole point. This essay is a first for more to come. This is yet another start.
And the new start is on a whole new publication- The Fantasy of Freedom. I’ll be trying to make sense of the dishevelled state of affairs we call our reality in India. This publication shall remain for personal, short, screaming into the internet void pieces. The other is still screaming into the internet void, but with research and analysis in long form-ish format.
The very first essay will be out shortly. Subscribing shall make sure it makes it to your inbox, as Substack works. Please have a look, let me know what you think, and spread the word. Here’s a button to take you there :)
