Authors Portraits broadly include the category of poets. Done in the style of sketch, doodle, painting, collage, mixed media. After a long stretch of reading and writing, I take a break and make simple art. It is self gratifying. A – Z Authors’ Portraits is my series on the writers who I’ve read and reviewed here in this blog. Their corresponding main book review webpages are linked here.

Every April, there is the A – Z Blog Challenge where bloggers announce their theme/ topic and post every weekday on their topic, with subject matters starting from the alphabet A, to Z. There were around 100 participants in 2025.
