An African Excellence and Partners Award Scholar
Glad to announce that I have started my Masters in Creative Writing at the @UofGlasgow after being selected as 1 of the 15 Africans and Caribbeans to be awarded the aforementioned Scholarship which covers my entire tuition fees.
Started Afro-Scottish Events to create a stage. Ended up creating a new version of me: one who leads, listens, asks for help.
Still a writer, now also a builder of rooms.
Keep creating, keep building.๐

You only hear the final poem, not the story behind it.
The 2am overthinking. The random line that wouldn't leave.
I'll be sharing more of that: the messy drafts and moments before the polish.
Happy New Week, Creatives๐

Moving from Nigeria to Scotland, I became self-conscious about my accent.
Would people understand me?
I learned I don't need to erase where I'm from to belong here.
My voice is enough.โ๐พ
Happy Saturday, Creatives!๐
