Dear Readers & Contributors,
The humble, yet very beautiful and significant ‘neem’ flower is our cover page. Drawing its inspiration, we aspire to be a more meaningful enterprise. IJELLS forges ahead bringing together a team of experts in the field from across the country and the world. Presenting from this issue onwards a Board of Advisors, Board of Editors and Board of Reviewers.
The ‘Creative Writing in English’ section has a poignant, stream-of-consciousness account of a young teacher, to a couple of memorable stories, one is to a call to stop the war in which lies the destruction of the whole mankind and another one which brings back to life the ‘fathers’ of English literature. Some papers in the other two sections, which the reader needs to focus along with everything else, on Crime Fiction, Anthropomorphic analysis of Bambi and the impact of AI on English Learners.
International Journal of English: Literature, Language and Skills—IJELLS extends its service into publishing books. We have started the enterprise IJELLS Publishing, a platform where we help authors self-publish their work. Check out our webpage to learn more: https://www.ijells.com/ijells-publishing/.
Happy Reading and Happy Sharing!
