Describe your approach to teaching
I aim to encourage people to write, to help them gain confidence and avoid comparisons with others. Everyone's writing journey is different! And the world is waiting for your story.
What inspires your own work?
I'm inspired to tell untold stories, to find a voice for those who have been silenced, to seek justice in an unjust past and to revisit history with fresh eyes.
