A DECADE+ OF STORYTELLING POWERED BY THE BEST WRITERS ON THE PLANET

BE PART OF THE LEGACY

TAMPA BAY • FEBRUARY 23-24 2026

This FINAL encore experience will be unlike any other. Because like everything we do, it's been "reimagined" from beginning to end. It's not a virtual or hybrid event. It's not a conference. It's not a seminar, a workshop, a meeting, or a symposium. And it's not your typical run-of-the-mill everyday event crammed with stages, keynote speeches, team-building exercises, PowerPoint presentations, and all the other conventional humdrum. Because it's up close & personal by design. Where conversation trumps presentation. And where authentic connection runs deep.

A Tribute from a Son to His Mother

I lost my father at a tender age
My mom alone brought me up with her predominant lineage
People in and around used to crack mock on me
I am mama’s child euphemistically
Yet I feel proud of my mom
She alone took the responsibility to make me self-reliant with decent norms!

My mother is my greatest epitome which I have no choice but to eulogize
I am mesmerized by her envious legacy and never tend to hide
She alone protects me from profligacy
Ensuring my upbringing, not to go astray with any of my inherent tendency
Having faith in me that I alone can carve a niche in human’s social fray
Today, what I am can only bank on her and take pride
It is my endearing mom who alone acted as my only guide!

She alone suppressed her load of anxiety
Her only dream is to nurture me with due gravity
Her diligence only focused on me and enables me to reach to the corridor of power
Where the absence of abuse loses its charm despite having no shame to shower
My mother is my only living deity
My existence has no relevance without her phenomenal moiety!

From my mother’s foetus
I emerged in nature’s floor to make a rational focus
Her pain, anxiety, and euphoria
Alone pave the way for me to bloom with distinction to maintain my inertia
I just cannot rule out since my episode in my mother’s foetus
How mitochondria of sperm surrendered to ovum and egg form to cause all ruckuses
It is the engine of the egg that eventually fueled the zygote to grow with haste
The power and prowess of my mother since then engulfed me
My entity eventually manifested in nature’s floor by her lone enduring capacity
She only craved to see me the moment I descend to nature’s floor
There only she dispensed her magnificent grandeur
I truly extend my heartiest tribute to my mother
Who only ensures me to see the light of the Earth with grand fervor!

I Debasish Majumder, hailing from Kolkata, State: West Bengal, Country: India, born in a middle-class family in the year 1965 and brought up in an environment extremely favorable for me to garner knowledge from people from various walks of life. Their lives and livelihood are of immense gravity to me as I considered myself as a fortunate one to be facilitated to interact with those who possessed multi-faceted experience and thrived vigorously in their respective fields. Since my schooling as well the path of my studies till I completed my graduation in humanities and thereafter working in various organizations has enabled me to get hands-on experience about the twist and turns of life where I observed the plight of myriad who are economically vulnerable and how they combat the life and even capable to enjoy the every drop of it without complaining about their state. Since my childhood, my passion for the English language and English literature enabled me to explore the world in and around me out of fabulous authors and their valuable renditions which even unveiled front of me the true picture of nature and how it is now confronting peril out of greedy few sharks in the veil of few humans obliterating the very essence of humane! Their works encouraged me to pen down articles, short stories, and poems with my little ability and I have already had a number of paperback editions of my compilation of short stories and poems which are now available on Amazon and other global sites. My alacrity for learning regarding nature as well the society along with the people who are considered as the most precious imperative for us to be enriched. I am blessed by innumerable notable thinkers and philosophers whose works appealed to me enormously, and even helped me to shape up myself by virtue of their expressions. I am having little capacity to translate the reflections of the present society, precisely for the acumen of a myriad of learned persons who have helped me to widen my vista with their wisdom and wide array of knowledge. My sincere effort was navigated by those enlightened persons and I tried with my best of ability to reflect on the scenario I have observed in the journey of my life.
