Jola Naibi

Writer and amateur photog. I seek to inspire and inform with the words I write and share and the photos I take. I have written a book of short stories: Terra Cotta Beauty, and I am working on a lot more. Reading and writing fuel my energy. In reading, I explore this vast and diverse world, in writing, I employ my over-active imagination and address the 'what-if' questions that life often throws at us.

Buchi Emecheta. Good Night and Thank You!

Second Class Citizen, The Joys of Motherhood, Kehinde, The Bride Price. I read about how she would balance her writing career with family life and that continues to serve as the wind beneath my wings as I do the same. What a marvelous inspiration and an excellent trailblazer for many women writers. Rest in Peace, dear mother Buchi.
