Chimamanda Adichie

22/4/2013

4 Comments

 
A friend of mine who now lives in J A (Jamaica, that is) sent me an interesting YouTube clip of Chimamanda Adichie 'The danger of a single story' and her growth as an African writer.  Going to see and hear her talk about her new book, 'Americanah', was inspirational, thought provoking and a real treat. I was particularly impressed with her views on Black women and hair - something also dear to my heart. It was well worth the trip across the river and on a weekday too!

Great to see your new website (and that you also gone along with weebly). Love that wallpaper! A great start and I'm sure there's going to be lots more to come.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my new website and blog, Ann - and for leaving a comments. I'm chuffed to have had a review of my story on Amazon. After all of the time spent setting up the website etc., it's high time to get back to some creative writing! Phew...

Sa ka fet as we say in Dominica. Great start to your blog, look forward to reading more. I'm a big fan of Chimamanda Adichie, I've read all her books and look forward to reading her new book.

Loved reading your short stories they are so refreshing, well written, witty and full of promise.
