When I started featuring other bloggers on my blog I had an ulterior motive.
I wanted to peep into their minds.
Wanted to have an understanding of why they blog .To learn how to write for years and improving with every word.
The best way to learn is by doing. That’s why #Ultimate blogging challenge with Blogchatter is fantastic.
But I absolutely loved #MyFriendAlexa.Finding the wonderful blogs making friends and learning .
One random moment 1 month back I stumbled on a post on Ilish !It was delicious. Seriously droolworthy!
I can honestly say ,that was the moment when ,I ransacked Priyanka’s blog to find more food stories.
Her book reviews are great but her take on Bengali recipes can make the serious foodie go looking for Bengali cuisine
Priyanka can write and make you imagine you are eating the food.I fell in love.
I had to learn how this woman thinks.
She is blogging for 10 years now.If that inspires you .I have more news .She blogs in both English and Bangla. She is also a freelance editor and writer.She is going to have her first solo book in print soon.
Priyanka kindly agree to help me out and give a few tips to me and my readers.
How did you start blogging Priyanka?
I begun blogging with writing poems and personal memoirs, but later revamped it into a book review blog. I believe people of my generation check out
reviews before picking up a book and a review would give them some idea. It is also a way to express my feelings, emotions and judgement about a book that
I liked or didn’t. I think it’s important to write good book reviews.

What else can we find on your blog?
There are also articles, stories, memoirs about food, especially Bengali cuisine with the #BanglaKhabar that many would find interesting and enlightening.
That’s my humble tribute to my cuisine and an attempt to bring out long forgotten or extinct dishes/recipes. I’m not a food blogger, I don’t just write
recipes, they are stories that might just bring a smile on my readers’ faces.

Who is your inspiration?
My better half, who is also a blogger and writes wonderful poems. In the blogosphere, I’d say Reshmy Pillai (of The Tales Pensive), Samarpita Sharma and
Debdatta Dasgupta Sahay (of b00kr3vi3ws) were the first book reviewers who kind of inspired me to start writing book reviews.
