In 2019, Indian author Ruchi Acharya dreamed of a literary community that could bridge the gap between the fellow, emerging writers with a fervent passion to create and the world of traditional publishing. She envisioned a place where writers and artists are allowed to publish based solely on the merit of their creative skills. Her desire and inspired vision culminated in the design of Wingless Dr

eamer Publisher, a forum providing aspiring and experienced creators alike the opportunity to share their love of English literature and art on a global platform. Throughout the year, our Wingless Dreamer team offers a multitude of themed writing contests designed to stimulate fresh ideas and present an opportunity for talented authors worldwide to contribute perspectives through creative expression efforts. Then, we stream together with the components of writing, editing, and illustrating to result in publications of beautiful poetry anthologies that we promote in the marketplace. Our commitment to providing this single platform and process allows our authors and artists to bypass challenges and obstacles associated with the traditional publishing goal, and instead maintain their focus and devotion to creating works of art. Most meaningful is that Wingless Dreamer community members become part of a family, and are guided, encouraged, and supported as they take each step toward cultivating a successful writing or art career. Non-native English-speaking authors are also granted access to free reviews, critiques, marketing, and, in some cases, funding for their work. Our community has slowly, but steadily, grown to become a prominent stage featuring well-known professional writers and artists from all over the world. Finally, we at Wingless Dreamer are devoted to publishing poetry, fiction, and artwork reflecting the entirety of multiple perspectives and varied experiences extracted from the deep well of soulful human existence. As such, BIPOC, LGBTQ, disabled, minority, and other marginalized voices are especially invited to join in the sharing. Our ultimate goal is to uplift the human spirit through a diverse creative community. At its core, the human spirit desires connections through expressions. We ardently endeavor to gift wings to these heartfelt dreams.

Emily BrontĂŤ- To Imagination

Just a casual Sunday at Mumbai before Monsoon. I was reading BrontĂŤ's work and the poem titled To Imagination caught my attention. "Imagination" has been truly personified in these poetic lines. When we are beaten down from day to day struggles - on the verge of giving up, Imagination is our closest friend. The power of imagination can rescue us from despair.

I hope you'll agree with me when I say that this poem reflects behind the scenes of writers' hardships and hopeless venture they face while pursuing their artistic career.

The inner world of thoughts, dreams, creativity, and imagination becomes even more valuable because reality is harsh whether it was back then in 1844 or today in 2026.

A couple of my favourite stanzas from the poem were:

(1) "What matters it all, that, all around,
Danger, and guilt, and darkness lie,
If but within our bosom's bound
We hold a bright, untroubled sky,
Warm with ten thousand mingled rays
Of suns that know no winter days?"

(2) "I trust not to thy phantom bliss,
Yet, still, in evening's quiet hour,
With never-failing thankfulness,
I welcome thee, Benignant Power;
Sure solaces of human cares,
And sweeter hope, when hope despairs!"

In imagination’s world, there is no deception (“guile”), hatred, or uncertainty. Negative human emotions and mistrust do not exist there. Voila! Love love love the interpretation of this poem.

Literary Devices

* Personification: Imagination is treated like a living companion.
* Contrast: Earthly suffering vs peaceful inner world.
* Imagery: Calm skies, storms, loving words.
* Tone: Melancholic yet comforting and reflective.

Towards the end, poetry gives us license to embrace our imperfections and make this world a better place to live in, let alone be imagination.

BrontĂŤ's message in this poem says that when life becomes painful and hopeless, imagination can save the human spirit. It creates a safe inner world untouched by cruelty, helping people endure reality.

NEW BOOK RELEASE

When the sun begins to descend and the world softens into amber silence, something extraordinary happens to the human heart — it remembers, it aches, it heals.

Sundowner is a luminous collection of poems and short stories by writers from across the globe, woven together by the fragile beauty of dusk — the hour suspended between endings and beginnings. Within these pages lie romances painted in golden light, grief tenderly softened by evening skies, lonely rooftops humming with memory, quiet beaches holding unfinished conversations, and souls learning how to survive the approaching night.

Each piece captures the emotional landscape of twilight: bittersweet goodbyes, fleeting tenderness, urban melancholy, healing in solitude, and the strange comfort that only sunset can bring.

Raw, intimate, and atmospheric, Sundowner is not merely an anthology — it is an evening shared between strangers who discovered poetry in the fading light.

Female rage isn’t hysteria. It’s memory. It’s inheritance. It’s resistance.

This Sunday, we’re cracking open the quiet fury women are taught to swallow—and what happens when we finally let it speak.

From intergenerational wounds to radical self-compassion, this episode dives deep into female rage as truth, survival, and reclamation.

🎧 New episode drops this Sunday

📍 YouTube | Spotify | Apple Podcasts

Come for the fire. Stay for the healing. 🔥

Candice M. Kelsey is a poet whose work moves with emotional and geographic sweep, tracing the fault lines between memory, motherhood, inheritance, and self-invention. Her latest collection, Another Place Altogether, is a formally expansive and deeply intimate exploration of what it means to break cycles of intergenerational trauma while raising children with fiercely abundant, self-aware love.

Moving between Los Angeles and Augusta, Georgia, Kelsey examines how place shapes identity, desire, and survival. Her poems wrestle with being an only daughter, a truthteller, and a mother who refuses inherited silence—learning, as she writes, “how to love, / not to kill.” Critics have praised her voice as striking and unforgettable, noting her ability to probe the most delicate family bonds with candor, power, and emotional precision.
