B. Anne Adriaens: How I Wrote ‘The sea giveth and the sea taketh away’ “Writing long-hand in a notebook feels like a safe space, if only because I’m usually the only person who can read my messy handwriting!” Content warning: mentions of drowning, death of a child
Ìfẹ́olúwa Àyàndélé: How I Wrote ‘The Dreams of Grandfather and Me’ “The answer I got was the dream. That dream, a cherished ambition, becomes a kind of symbiosis connection between my grandfather and me.”
