Thank you folks for publishing yet another Turni. This time, a visually stunning and emotionally loaded one.
It will take me a while to write all the comments, I will see if I can do it in one burst, but perhaps not, as then I won't do justice to the content.
I have heard the the question what "Turni" means a number of times, even it is a Bengali word or not. I think I answered it several times, but a picture is probably worth a thousand word. So that collage of the Original Published Turni Magazine will stay with me for a long time, even if that original magazine was last published ages ago. It took a lot of effort to publish something during those days. Most of that effort was done by a single person, not me, and he kindly took those pictures and send it to me. Thanks to the head-clerk for making the images presentable.
I call doc; dactar, dacter-shaheb, or whatever I feel like. I think he has a kind and responsive soul. His time management is legendary and I learn new things from dactar everyday. He doesn't know he is teaching, but teaching nonetheless. I am so glad dactar decided to stay here and spend a bit of his valuable time with the community. You folks don't know what you are not using if you don't intereact with dactar. I hope I get to meet him in London soon.
Amor is someone I met relatively recently. I think this blockchain is not doing enough justice to someone of his talent. Simply because we don't have the reach. He can and he is more prolific on other platform, and I feel Amor is doing us a favor by being here active on this blockchain. I learn new things form him every day.
I call deepu the Kobiyal. So does many others. His delivery of poetry rivals many professionals I have heard over the years, and I have heard many. Again with the grindstone of life and responsibility on his back he still contributes regularly, and again we don't do enough justice to his contribution, I think. To @deepu7 I will say:
হাল ছেড়ো না…
হাল ছেড়ো না বন্ধু, বরং কন্ঠ ছাড়ো জোরে
I agree with head-clerk's interpretation and assessment of fia, who I only have known for the last couple of month. She is fun-loving, active, and can take obsessive trolling directed at her. I see real potential in her, and I am so glad that she is here.
Rehan is a veteran here, and knows his way around the blockchain perhaps more than anyone else. He is always cooking something that we don't know and only find out after a lot of persuation. But he is a curious and honest soul and have a natural knack to write supernatural stories!
Minhaj I know for a while. He doesn't talk much, but always around, and perhaps most consistent with production. And @zayedsakib, you and I both can learn that from Minhaj and we won't be bekar anymore :)
Sharmin is out here for a while as well. She has her ups and downs, but I am so glad that she decided to stick around and generate content consistently. I wish her success and prosperity.
Toushik is someone I know the least, but so far I have seen keen interest on manythings blockchain. I hope I get to know him more.
Then we have Partho, our artist! His work can be in any public or private galaries here if given enough time and resources. He always gives us origial art to include in Turni, we are so grateful for that!
And then again we have our head-clerk @zayedsakib. He is an enigma, "...god send him to test me". :) (10 hive to whoever, who can tell me where that quote is from!) As he mentioned once earlier, he hold all the keys related to publication of Turni. It is very centralized. Without him Turni can't be published. He tests all of us everyday, sometimes we win sometimes we loose :) I hope cumulatively we can inject some focus into him, but again, I personally promised him that I will never ask him to change his batting grip. I have high hopes for him.
