One place. Once a month.

What arrives in the post

Six things, every issue

The Story

One excerpt from history that I hope you enjoy.

The Place

A graphic depiction of where this happened.

The Artifacts

Photos and articles from back then.

The World Around Them

What was going on around the world in different fields.

The Postcard

An illustration to remember this story by.

The Tea

One tea bag, for you to try my favourites.


How it arrives

Sent, not emailed

Every issue goes out on the 1st of the month, by post. It should reach you around the 15th.

I ship internationally too. Outside India, it just takes your envelope a little longer to find you.


The philosophy

Why I started this

I read more autobiographies than novels. I find it so interesting how distinct yet similar all of our life experiences are.

I've always wanted to get better at telling stories myself.

So this is my attempt at that. I'm going looking for those stories, through archives, one at a time. Turns out I'm not the only one who wants them.

You don't have to go far to end up somewhere else entirely.
Sometimes it just takes opening an envelope.
