I have the good fortune to know Ms Amritbir Kaur for the last four years. She is a lecturer in English by profession. She writes poetry both in English and Punjabi has published an anthology of poems titled Pages of life. Currently she is translating Khuswant Singh's 'Sunset Club'. She writes for news papers and her articles have appeared in Speaking tree of Times of India

She is owning and editing an online magazine The Literary Jewels (www.literaryjewels.com). This magazine though deals mainly with literary and writing activities covers other forms of creative effort. It provides a platform for budding and aspiring writers.Amritbir Kaur also offers various other services like book reviews, publishing of books, and preparation of magazines.

She has two other blogs Guru Mehar-The Blessing of God and Photography

She has very graciously published one of my stories Sulochana’s delight in her latest issue April-June 2012 http://www.literaryjewels.com/p/online-magazine-literary-jewels.html (pages 13&14) Please go through the entire magazine and give feed back to the editor at theliteraryjewels@gmail.com

  4. I glanced through the issue.
    The attempt, I feel is good. If it gives avenues for young and inspiring budding writers it is certainly great.

    But will they be able to sustain the cost and revenue that is necessary to keep the publication afloat?
