The Official IGP Team List

Thank you for your delicious meals, your early support as a valuable QC Reader, and the times you gave tangible care so generously with even the little you had without expectation of return. I am grateful for the abundance shared from your heart across different seasons.

Thank you for the times you kept a mug of hot tea ready for me, for making breakfast on days I was super hungry or skipped meals, and for always keeping my spirits high with your natural wit and laughter when the work felt overwhelming.

Thank you for providing a tangible loan during a difficult period of sharing expenses between 2021 – 2022. As I was building IGP, your care with editing my first manuscript and providing early editorial support mattered a lot to me. The thoughtful gifts you shared in that time including the t-shirt acknowledging my work as a one-woman press, your painting of my original logo, and souvenirs from your travels are some of my and IGP's favorite treasures.

Thank you for always checking in on me, for the curd rice, fruits, and the generous, loving meals whenever I visited. I am deeply grateful for our kind, thoughtful conversations, and for the birthday envelopes of INR 1,000 every year that provided a welcome buffer for me.

I appreciate your supportive conversations when things were challenging, especially your presence at the beginning of this year. Even when times were tough last year and you haven't been able to visit me in person, you thoughtfully booked the auto so that I could visit you. Thank you for backing the press in the small ways you could and encouraging my work as an author this year by purchasing almost all of my digital books for a discounted rate of INR 2,000+ during my first bookstore trial.

Thank you for generously supporting my upcoming book with a gift of INR 2,000 this year, even before its official release. I appreciate your belief in this project so much.

Thank you for buying the three original books at the start and for sending us your first chapbook, as well as three copies of your book after it was published, along with letters, photographs, and postcards. Thank you for the calendar and the art workshop book that sits on my shelf as future inspiration. You even bought a few of my books, IGP's anthologies, and collaborations, for which we are truly grateful.

Thank you for being one of my staunchest supporters and for talking about my work to your peers. From buying a few digital books to support my path, to generously gifting me INR 2,000 during a difficult year when you didn’t have enough yourself, your belief in me has meant everything.

Thank you for your consistent emotional support while I was building, learning how to use code, and experimenting with creative ideas. It's the simple things that matter in the end. The conversations, friendship, and deep care you provided during a year when I was isolated made me feel less alone.

Thank you for spontaneously deciding to contribute INR 3,000 towards our press so we can keep doing what we do, and for your kindness in always keeping an open door for me.

Thank you for taking a liking to the publications of IGP, and for being the first person to donate three books to three libraries in Australia, as well as ordering a copy of my friend's book and mine.

Thank you for your generous contribution of USD 200 towards my publishing projects that I am currently working on. Your enthusiasm, belief in me, and the yearly tradition of a luncheon whenever you visit has given me more encouragemen than you know.
