In the midst of our fastrack lives, we often forget to look back, look within ourselves, our family, our past and our being, in general. This living family history archive is a space to remind us to pause, think, and reflect upon all that we hold dear, but forget to nurture within our minds. 

At Memorabilia, we are inviting essays/blogs on 

• Family heritage 

• Memory 

• Material memory 

• Stories relating to/ heard from family

• Childhood

• Old age

• Nostalgia

Please note that we are not looking for very academic, well-researched papers, or pieces that are too formal in tonality. We are eager to read stories and memory bits. We'll be happy if you keep it intimate, personal, easy, and informal. 

Feel free to submit personal narratives, commentary pieces, creative non-fiction pieces and interviews in English, Bengali or Hindi. Please include your brief bio in third person and a profile photograph.

The world limit of the pieces is 600-800 words, but we welcome bigger pieces that do justice to the themes.

We are always open for submissions!
