As a writer, do you find yourself writing scenes that you know aren’t gonna be in your book just because this itch in your brain is begging you to write it or else you won’t be able to write the scenes you actually need to write?

So I was at a coffee shop writing my book and a stranger came up and asked me to stop staring at them and I’m like “oh no I was just watching a film in my head because I’m writing a book” but apparently I looked a s.erial kill€r studying it’s prey. I’m not sure they believed me.

The only way out is to unlearn & learn, read & create ✍🏾. I hope 'The Ones Before' will serve as a tool for rediscovering our culture, just as it has been for me while writing it. #westafricanculture #africanfantasy #lossofidentity

[The Ones Before @theonesbefore]

What if I told you our problems as Africans and African Americans is rooted in the deep loss of our identity?

[The Ones Before @theonesbefore]

They say uproot a plant from its natural habitat, plant it on foreign soil and watch it undergo changes in growth patterns

[The Ones Before @theonesbefore]

Watch it accept its “sickness” (metaphorically speaking)
as its new identity

[The Ones Before @theonesbefore]

Watch it accept its “sickness”
as its new identity

[The Ones Before @theonesbefore]

watch it loose its unique traits that made it distinct, and watch it be forced to build resilience as its sole survival strategy

Same question… but with book series!

If you could ask the author of any unfinished book series how they would've ended it, which series would you choose?

Mine would be The Wheel Of Time by Robert Jordan (completed by Brandon Sanderson after Jordan's passing)
