Dear Beloved Reader,
If youāre reading this, youāve probably walked with me for a whileāthrough erasure poems, odes, short fiction, and soft places between the lines. This space, once devanseli.substack.com, has grown into its next form:
š www.devanseli.com
Thatās right. We are elevating, expanding, and etching ourselves into the fabric of published literature. So please update your bookmarks, and if you're new here, welcome to the fold.
Donāt worryāthis is still a home for poetry, reflection, and story.
This place is still a cloak, the perfectly wrapped warm blanket of kindness to self and grace.
But in the quiet moments, something new has been risingānot quite what youāre used to from me.
Letās just say:
Thereās a cookie.
Thereās wonder.
And thereās a different kind of magic coming soon.
Iāve been working on a project for younger readersāsomething playful, heart-filled, and full of life. Itās very different from what youāll find in the archives here. But it still carries my voice, my rhythm, and my love for the downtrodden.
I canāt wait to share more when the time is right. Until then, thank you for continuing to read, dream, and imagine with me.
With deep gratitude,
Devans
