Born in 1983 in London UK, with an ENFJA personality type...'a beautiful soul having a human experience' is what I'd say about me. I love reading, writing, thinking, discussing things, and looking at the world and how it works. I also really enjoy the spiritual and esoteric side of life that is hard to explain!

What do I read and write?

As a reader I love essays and informative articles, fiction, and non-fiction, I read pretty much a little bit of everything. As a writer I find myself often penning essays that focus on the day-to-day experiences of women, especially black women, society, world issues, life, relationships, gender, race, reflections, spiritual 'woo woo' topics if the mood takes me, and share my thoughts on what's happening in the world. I don't identify as a feminist, I am a 'womanist' if know you, you know what that means. As a fiction writer I enjoy crime and thriller novels.

I must say, a lot of what I write when it comes to essays I do look to facts and data to present my thoughts to try to give balanced views, even if I lean to one side strongly. I believe in balance, in life and writing.

Where do I write?

I have a newsletter on Substack called Notes on Black Women, I'm an editor at Fourth Wave (womanist/ feminist / equality focused publication), most of my work will be found here. I also write over at Modern Women (women's focus publication), I'm the creator of and editor at The Diarist publication, and I do the odd writing prompt I see pop up on my news feed also.

I have no real expectations here as a writer, I'm just sharing my thoughts and writing... it's just me and my muse. Join me for the ride and you'll probably get to know more 'about me' via my muse.

Thanks for your readership, I hope my writing gave you something to think about. If I’ve caught you in a good mood or you’re feeling kind, you can buy me a cup of herbal tea here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/MeAndMyMuse
