What's Your Background, Set?
What's your background, Set? A question I hear a lot whether it be in the literary world, investigative/ security sector or amongst my art community. Sometimes amongst long forgotten friends and acquaintances. Though in those instances, it's mostly intended to mean about my ethnicity. By which I reply with exasperation, "Black" because who has time to list out all the different types of black only to be mostly met with a hotep or self-hating reply. "So you're mixed. Wow, lucky." or "You're Arab." or my favourite, "Ethiopians are not black, they are Semites." I always find it amusing when folks will ask you your background only to impose their narrative on it. This article is not to set the record straight but rather an introduction on who I am and what my narrative is.

Entry 1: January 1st As the clock struck midnight and the air buzzed with anticipation, Alex stood on the precipice of a new year. The memories of the past twelve months unfolded like a film reel in their mind, each frame etched with trials and tribulations that had tested the very fabric of their existence.

Aspire To Be
As I peer into the horizon of this upcoming year, you might be curious about my game plan. Well, truth be told, it's a bit of a puzzle for me right now. The past year was quite the rollercoaster—I snagged the Top Story award four times in a row (still pinching myself about that one!). That success got me thinking, though. I've got this burning desire to have my poetry resonate with more people, you know? But here's the kicker: I'm about as introverted as they come. Putting myself out there? It's like asking a fish to ride a bike.

He faced struggles negotiating with tribes in Makkah and Madinah. Umrah is not mandatory as a hajj and is considered as a ‘minor pilgrimage’ but has a lot of significance from an Islamic point of view.

Part-Time Lover. Top Story - January 2024.
In response to your request, I have begun to contemplate the progress made since my arrival on this platform, and what the forthcoming year portends in relation to my own goals. The process of reflection brings me back to the ups and downs of story writing, the creative process that challenges me to dig a bit deeper, drive my vocabulary to expand, find new ways to forge vague, nebulous ideas into something relatable or at least entertaining. And then there is the raison d'etre
