We feel truly overwhelmed when we think of how far we have come from when we started out as a small team taking our first steps in the online lit mag world, in January 2010. Today, Spark, the online literary magazine, is SEVEN years old! The January 2017 issue is a Potpourri of several creative ideas and we believe it represents what we stand for: a platform that showcases great creative thinking. We hope you enjoy this issue and we look forward to your support as we step into the eighth year of our journey to discover word, world and wisdom through writing, art and photography!

This month, Spark is all about lessons – from school, college, work and life! Our “Pedagogy: On Education and Learning” issue explores the art/science of teaching, education methodologies, and teachers and their experiences. The issue is an interesting mix of fiction, non-fiction and poetry. Our feature for the month is an interview with Bindu Subramaniam and Ambi Subramaniam from SaPa, a school that teaches Carnatic and western classical music.
