And if you'd love to keep your skin rich and glowing in your photos, you better not be sleeping on my Classic Preset. I've been using it since I created it in 2018 and it works on all skin tones! From deep dark to white 👌🏾

Of course little tweaks might be needed which is why I include a guide with the preset.

Hello lovelies, I hope you're having a wonderful d Hello lovelies, I hope you're having a wonderful day. I'm pleased to share that @thrivehachette showcase event in collaboration with Spread the Word is happening tomorrow, 11 March at 6pm. 

I'll be on the panel led by @bobbynayyar with fellow Hachette authors @dorothykoomson_author and @ameranwar_author.

There will also be readings from the first cohort of writers to graduate from the 'Grow Your Story' development programme. 

It's a free online event. Link in bio to register for tickets.
Hello! It's been a while huh? I've been around, bu Hello! It's been a while huh? I've been around, but I had to break from sharing on my feed to preserve my mental health. Trying to keep up with the juggernaut that is Instagram's algorithm became too much and just isn't worth my sanity.... be consistent! post everyday! post at this time! don't write long captions! Don't ask leading questions! Get people to save your content! Get them to share it! Use X amount of hashtags..

Haba! Social media has become a hamster in a wheel project and I had to get off.  We need to have the conversation about regulations because the way it affects our psyche.... is it sustainable? 

Anyway, I realised there's a difference to how I feel about my business account and this one that is personal. The business one isn't personal so I find that it doesn't affect me as much as this one does, you get what I mean? So for now, I'll be sharing important bits about my work and other things I fancy when I want to.... rather than trying to be in the good graces of the algorithm 🙄 I mean, if shadow banning is really a thing, then I've been banned for many years as on a "good post" I get about 300 reach 🤣 but I should try harder abi? like my content isn't dope enough. 

Anyhoo, enough of that! I hope you're all keeping well in this pandemic.... it's another thing doing my head in ♥️

Acknowledgments ✨ 2020 did not break me, instea Acknowledgments ✨

2020 did not break me, instead it taught me lessons I'll be carrying for the rest of my life. 

So many times I was beaten down by failed attempts to achieve goals, but each time I got back up and tried again. 

So many times I could have given up and throwed away the year, but I was determined to persist and make the best of what I could. 

I read more books than I have in a while, meditated more than ever before, was in commune with amazing women and supported by even more wonderful ones. 

The Returnees was published and @okohs.boudoir took off. I reconnected with several people from my past and had conversations deep into the night that made my tummy rumble with laughter, and my mum sigh with hope. 

I lived in the moment and had rest days without feeling guilty. Through all this, I tried to remain grateful anytime I felt a hint of disappointment. Some of this discontentment I'm still trying to knead out of my psyche. 

Yet I'm grateful for everything and everyone who supported me in small or big ways. 

2020 did not break me, nor did it you✨
On the other side of the lens is 2021. This is m On the other side of the lens is 2021. 

This is me flirting with 2021.

If you want me to put in a good word for you, you know what to do 😉
