The first year of writing since an enforced resignation in June 2021, was good from the point of publishing "Campus Crime Series Cases". I wrote a post on the same last year also. Check the given link:
How was this year from that point of view?
This year was more than a writing year. It was the year, when I started shifting from university campus house to my home in village. Any shift takes time in adjustment. On that, when you don't know for how long you would be there. And what would be the next destination. My choice, since almost a decade is Europe. But leaving India, especially after corona pandemic seems a bit difficult task. Rather should say, I am nomore that much travel loving person as I used be earlier. Or probably, it's true about most people after corona? I have become suspicious of so many things. Just wanna have a base somewhere along with India and wanna write and write.
Though first choice is Europe but things seem interesting elsewhere also. Writing, editing, journalism and science communication in the form of what they started calling story telling? And issues of importance are governance, system and impact on human beings. How media plays its role in that?
To some extent, I have already started Social Case Studies. But unlike Campus Case Series, it's a bit difficult to write about them. These are not straight forward official documents that one can collect, analyze and convert into a case study book. I guess, I also need to learn how to hide people's and places identities, without loosing the essence of fact files. Some personal losses during this time period made me more determined to do whatever I am doing. It's important for common people, for any welfare society. Publications have been stopped for a while or should I say got delayed due to many factors. By next year, when I will be writing some post like this, hope I will have something better.
