The A.E.C.: A Supernatural Love Story by S N Sippy.

Did we cook food or a food obsession?
Lockdown in over the world has
affected each and every one of us, maybe at an emotional level or at the mental
level and no doubt at a physical level as well. Lockdown has thought us one
major thing, which is we can survive even with basic needs. Without eating
outside, without spending on shopping, wearing simple comfy clothes without
branded clothes, without going out, even though it was depressing to stay at
home but we did spend quality time with our loved ones.
Home-cooked meals are always
considered healthy but did eating at home during lockdown proved to be
wholesome? A recent survey showed, 39% of the population gained weight during
the lockdown. Even though we can blame it on lack of moment or lack of space to
walk or exercise, still this proves that even home-cooked meals can make you overweight.
The last 2 years have been
challenging, and even though we are not wearing masks and not locked in our
rooms, we are still stuck in our minds. The food industry has high rocketed
after the lockdown.
During this period, many of us tried
different hobbies, cooking and baking were one of them. Tutorials from
Instagram and How to cook videos from Youtube made everything easy. So we ate,
with our mouths along with our hearts, with a full stomach and gaining weight,
we survived lockdown.
Many of the small businesses and
hobbies ended as we resumed back into our work life but did we stop eating? Currently,
we are still stuck in the same loop but instead of cooking food our mind still
feels hungry and we now started binge eating.
Gone are those days when the only
stall we ever saw was a Pani Puri stall. There was a time when the Khau Galli (Food
Vally) was only available at famous places where a variety of food stalls were
together and one can eat different tastes all in one place. But now if you walk
outside any station you will see stalls everywhere, from Pani Puri to Dosa,
from Sandwich to Sugarcane Juice, from Vada Pav to Momos. There is a
significant change in the food industry. One of the major rises in the industry
is due to Swiggy and Zomato making it easy to order and deliver food without
actually stepping out.
Earlier some diets restricted
some food consumption, Veg, Non – Veg, and Vegan, but today a single dish, like
momo’s can be found in all these three types. Is this growth or is it a sign
that our mind is shrinking and the only thing we want is to eat, eat to satisfy
our mind?
Overall I read somewhere that the
only thing better than talking about food is eating. Eat good feel good, and
stop worrying. To read more please check the “Page Link” How to plan daily
routine can make you happy.” A blog post that will guide you to plan a routine,
track habits, and control inhibitory.
So should we continue like this
or do we need to take action? Send me an email with, what you think and suggestions.

Darkness and Light by Mahevash Shaikh.
Don’t let yourself believe that one day
The Universe will make up
For all the times it broke you.
No matter what you’ve been through,
The rule of life remains the same:
Put in the effort, see a change.
Darkness And Light is a collection of poems that explores common mental health problems and the strange, dysfunctional world we live in today. After all, mental health and society are intertwined, aren't they?
My Take:
Darkness and Light: Poems On Mental Health And Society is the new poetry book written by poetess Mahevash Shaikh, and in simple words this book is soulful.
The book contains 133 enchanting poems that have hints of reality and also inspirations. I loved reading each and every one of the poems, I also read a few multiple times which felt closer to my heart.
Mahevash is a versatile and gifted writer, you can feel, every thought and emotion flashing by while reading her work. That I believe is impressive. I am a quick reader, but while reading darkness and light, I’m intentionally reading slowly, taking in each and every word, letting it settle in, and feeling the rhyme.
The highlight of this book is the topics on which the poem is written, the idea of first acknowledging the issue and then motivating others to not take a wrong step is the best thing I ever read. The poetess has an imaginative mind and a creative heart and has beautifully written these poems that will remain with me forever. It has a perfect balance of sensitivity and encouragement.
Overall, a soulful and enchanting *book of poems*. So click here and read now to find sunshine in the darkness in the book, Darkness, and Light written by Mahevash Shaikh

Author's Interview with David Howell.
Hi, I'm David, I live in s small village in Cambridgeshire in the UK with my wife, Louise, and young son, I'm new to writing and not lucky enough to make it my day job, I have always worked in warehousing, driving a forklift, but who knows, one day I may be able to make my writing a full-time job.
Writing came about by accident, I'm a daydreamer. Life is my inspiration, and aspects of my life experiences are in the book, for example, Louise and I suffered 3 miscarriages before we had Jayden, ( he's on the front cover), I wanted to get the feelings we felt in the story. We all have a life story. in us, to which we could adapt to a meaningful fictional story if we so wished to do so.
The book is about a young mum in an abusive relationship, she escapes the abuse to start a new life with her young son, Tommy. Fate plays a cruel trick on her when she wakes up 5 years in her past, two years before Tommy is born. The dilemma, does she relive the abusive relationship so Tommy can be born, or stay with John the man she always regretted leaving.
I love the thought of time travel, I wanted to get across that every decision we make in life shapes your and others' life.,you don't notice how fate shapes your life as it just becomes your reality and the reality of people around you. You would only notice it if you could go back in time and every minor change could reshape your and others' reality beyond recognition. I think about 80% of my readers are female. I never really had a genre in mind it just worked out that way.
Three years altogether, that's from the minute I put pen to paper, so to speak, right up to when I published with amazon.
I've been told by readers that they found it a unique read, uplifting, and thought-provoking. To hear that has made the writing process worthwhile and emotionally rewarding to me.
There wasn't going to be one, but I have had so many readers ask if there was going to be another. I've started writing the sequel, Echoes through time. The more great comments I get the faster I write lol.
Yes, quite a few times, the best way I found to get over it is to write further on in the story as ideas pop into my head then fit all the pieces together at the end like a jigsaw puzzle, there's no rule you have to write it from start to finish, in fact I wrote the ending first.
Well, I'll let my readers decide if I'm a talented author or not. I don’t have much time for hobbies, I love playing pool, and watching Formula 1, Lewis Hamilton and George Russell are my favorite drivers.
