September?

In case you’re wondering what I’ve been up to the last month. Don’t panic! I’m still alive and writing! It’s the fasting, Eid and getting back to normal life that’s kept me away from the blog. I’ve nearly completed my film script too. So, it has been an extremely busy time for me.

I have some good news to share about Eemaan (my older daughter’s) winning story. Apparently, the judges of Leicester Libraries were so impressed with her work they sent it on to the Literature Development Officer at Leicester Council. It was done so in the hope of getting something further set up for young writers of Eemaan’s age. Hint..hint maybe a young people’s creative writers group. After all, the East Midlands is renowned for its writers.It’s so exciting to watch my daughter develop this interest. I hope she continues because who knows she may one day win the Man Booker Prize!!! She’s already up for nomination by her school on a Creative Arts award. Just watch this space!!
