Arre, when you write to a professor, start by praising their work on something specific—like how I notice the tiny stitches in a kantha quilt. They want to see if you can think, not just repeat. And it's never too late; my neighbour's son emailed in June and got a reply because he mentioned their shared love for Rabindra Sangeet! From my own life, when I wanted to learn zari work, I thought the class was full, but I brought some homemade pithas and the teacher made space. So don't listen to those who say timing is everything; sometimes, heart is.
