We’re celebrating one year of Tasavvur. Join us as we look at the past, present, and future of Tasavvur.
The common thread we find through all those discussions is Chandrasekera’s own attitude towards craft. Primarily, he has none. He is practical and straight-forward in his approach, there are no airs put on of what a writer should and shouldn’t do, generous in understanding the sensibilities of writers.
In a world that seeks to deny us homes in any present, hopes of any future, and to erase any semblance of our existence in history and keeps us shackled to the colonial baggage that is cis-heteronormativity, one finds that speculative fiction and fantasy lend themselves rather easily to queer stories.
