Tajammul Kothari considered himself a novice writer (in fact, he still does) as it is only a few years ago that he planted his tiny footprints in the literary world but now after the success and recognition of his two poetry books "An Ode to Life" and "Unanswered Verses" by both the readers and the media, his confidence and courage has surged.

This, in turn, ignited an urge in him to experiment with his writing. He has taken a step forward and published a short stories collection titled, “Mixed Bag-Short Stories”.

The author sincerely hopes that his experiment will be fruitful and will receive the same appreciation and support as his previous works.

Articles about his books have been regularly featured in Newspapers and Magazines

Tajammul Kothari liked Michelle Romano's review of Fluffy & Friends: The Feelings Parade: A story about friendship and feelings for little hearts (Little Hearts Collection): "A cute story about friendships and feelings: I especially loved the pictures - so animated, colorful, and alive-looking. The numerous coloring, maze-like, writing, and drawing activities at the end were a bonus. Author note: It was difficult to read." Read more of this review »

Tajammul Kothari liked Michelle Romano's review of The Tale of the Fisherman and the Golden Fish: A Verse Retelling of Alexander Pushkin’s Fairy Tale (with the Original Russian Text Inside) (Pushkin’s Fairy Tales Reimagined): "This is a sweet story about a man, his wife, and a fish. I especially liked the English and Russian versions of each chapter and the rhyming. It's a narrative of magic, then poof, everything changes. Read to find out."

If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.” —Donald Hall “Poetry is a rich, full-bodied whistle, cracked ice crunching in pails, the night that numbs the leaf, the duel of two nightingales, the sweet pea that has run wild, Creation’s tears in shoulder blades.” —Boris Pasternak “Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.” —Charles Simic “Language is a cracked kettle on which we beat out tunes for bears to dance to, while all the time we long to move the stars to pity.” —Gustave Flaubert “Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.” —Allen Ginsberg. ~~~~~ Amy King, Moderator Amy King is the recipient of the 2015 Winner of the WNBA Award (Women’s National Book Association).
