@MarkLeslie@Nepallitfest@MarkLeslie Hi, Mark. Could you please check your Media, Press and Booking form, please? I just filled it hoping to have a brief talk with you about the reading culture among youth in Canada. Thank you.
Today, I went to report on the Writer's Market in Kitchener, Canada. It was great to see established writers along with aspiring ones.
As they said, it's their first time organizing such a market specifically for writers.
I remembered @Nepallitfest the whole time.
“The only people I would care to be with now are artists and people who have suffered: those who know what beauty is, and those who know what sorrow is: nobody else interests me.”

@paavan11 I don't know about other nationalities. But I am sure about Nepalese, they WEREN'T tricked. They knew they were going to war. 'Gurkha' can fight wherever we want to, is the mentality that took them to Russia. I
However, I accept that a very few of them might have been tricked.
चराको देश–विदेश हुँदैन । मान्छेले आफैंलाई स्वनिर्मित रेखाभित्र बाँधेको हो, चराले होइन । चरा नेपाल आउने पनि होइनन्, वा साइबेरिया फर्कने पनि होइनन् । चरा मौसमअनुसार उपयुक्त ठाउँ जान्छन्, पछि फर्कन्छन् । चरालाई मान्छे नबनाऔं, चरालाई चरा जस्तै स्वतन्त्र छाडिदिउँ ।
OK's content :P
This edition of the NLF is bringing me happiness. Kai Bird, George van Driem are among the attendees. Although I couldn't attend in person, I have virtually watched some sessions. I wish the team a good luck. @NirajBhari@AjitBaral@Nepallitfest@fineprintbooks
Happy World Radio Day.
I was in class 9 when I joined a local radio station in my hometown. I worked there for a year, basically as a host for child programs.
Radio brought me to the journalism field, it seeded my dreams about journalism.
I was 15 when this photo was taken.
This is an example of how Globe and Mail, an international news media informed its readers about the mistakes they made throughout the year. I feel like Nepalese news media should start this trend, it will certainly help increase their credibility, but not defame them.Have a look
I feel like Nepalese media don't hold themselves accountable for the mistakes they make. And on top of it, I feel that editors don't tend to answer the questions/queries asked to them. Media and media personnel should be accountable to the public, to the issues they cover.
It has been a common trend where a media publishes an article about any issue and runs to another, without answering/addressing the questions/queries/complaints raised about the article. They don't even bother to publicly acclaim the mistakes they often make.
