Princess Kate is a HOTTIE!!

I like everyone else around the world, watched the Royal Wedding and I have to say, it was lovely. Kate looked beautiful and her sister left me speechless. That was the sexiest wedding gear I have ever seen. Saw Harry giving her the eye!
My mum got all dressed up in her African gear....to watch it from our living room. She is funny.
Made me think about weddings and marriage. Marriage kind of freaks me out. I have no idea why. I think it's the whole becoming one that gets me. Oh yeah and the forever bit too but I definitely want a wedding. Buying that dress, would be the best shopping day ever. I haven't been to a wedding and I'm itching to go. I've got all these gorgeous Monsoon dresses to wear so come on guys put a ring on it!

Was feeling really low for a few days. I was feeling like I couldn't trust many people which was upsetting but I'm glad that I'm all better now. Positive! And ready to keep aiming for my amazing future!

MYSELF did B Supreme woman's dance show on Monday. It was really good. We put together a were wolf set to Howl by Florence and the Machine in two weeks but we rehearsed like crazy. But the best part was the costumes. The lace leotards with the ripped leggings. The white contacts that took me, Kloe and alot of the solution AGES to get in to my eyes but the effect was crazy. Then Kloe's mate Lauren did our wolf make up. I love a girl that can give me amazing cheekbones! The 2nd half of the show was the Bonnie and Clyde B-boy/girl battle. Rosa was amazing, I would of loved to have seen her battle Roxy. Roxy is this small girl who has crazy power and was doing moves that I couldn't even process. Honestly she is from another planet. I am a big fan!

After doing Collabo straight to B Supreme, I have really neglected my writing. I've been working on a short story for a competition but opportunities are coming up and I need to take action so I'm not dancing for a month! Lets re-phrase that, I'm not dancing for a month apart from the NEW MYSELF open class starting on May 9th cause I have to support that and I think zero dancing will drive me crazy. My friends Dad is a journalist so hopefully I can get some insight from him because I'm intrigued by journalism now! I got some books to finish so it feels good to be on track.

I brought my first ever desk yesterday. Writing on my bed with my cats leg draped over me, really isn't working anymore so I went to Wood Green and brought one from Argos. I didn't realise how heavy it was. I dropped it as soon as I picked it up and huffed and puffed to the bus stop. I was drenched with sweat when I finally sat down on the bus. Then it took me ages to figure out how to assemble it. I left out some pieces though but it's balancing so it's all good!

I'm going to watch Breakin' Convention on Monday. Sooo excited to see Boy Blue's piece especially. I'm ready for my mind to be blown!

In the words of Carrie Bradshaw and just like that I was a YA author

It feels like the right time but this will be my last entry. I know! I've been writing in this blog for TEN YEARS but this year it just felt off. I couldn't pinpoint why that was but the other day I realised I started this blog because I was a dancer who was trying to understand the publishing world. I also was so scared of anyone reading my work hence why I started a blog. Ten years later I have fulfilled my goals! Back in May I had finished my first YA book, a love story based around a Black owned bookshop in Stoke Newington. How I wrote this book when I was heartbroken I have no idea. I vaguely remember sitting on the couch with headphones on playing O Holy Night on repeat at 3am writing. I made my deadline and I wasn't sure if the book was good. My first round of submission for another book had very conflicting feedback and honestly I didn't have it in me to experience that again. I just wanted a deal. Fast forward to September 21st and my book was sent on submissio

I have a new book out!

That's right book 4 is out! This is my first anthology and it's absolutely gorgeous. I was asked to be part of The Very Merry Murder Club maybe a few weeks after my dad and I remember just thinking why is this opportunity coming now?! And it's with Farshore and imprint of HarperCollins. There's no way I can do it. I literally couldn't write. My agent Gemma spoke to me and the editors knew what had happened to me so it was really up to me. I prayed on it and God said to me you're not going to feel this way in October so I said yes. I won't lie I was worried that I really couldn't write this book but thank God for his strength and amazing agent and now it's here!  I've been ill all week but I saw loads of pic on social and my copy hasn't come yet so I dragged myself to Waterstones Islington to take pics of the book on the shelves. The booksellers were looking at me like are you going to buy this book. HA!  The amazing thing is I have even more

My meal was £22 and it was so small I ate it in 3 mouthfuls.

Happy World Afro Day! I had no idea this was even a day so yes for us! How gorgeous is this? I can't remember what country it's in but I saw it some weeks ago on Twitter. Getting into the swing of writing these blogs is harder than I thought. I'm not sure why I'm finding it tricky to stay on top of it and I know I'll regret it especially when I read back over it at the end of the year.  I turned another year older and despite it being a year that is turning out to be unpredictable I'm thankful that I'm here to see another birthday. It's always hard planning what to do, something that I know won't cost an arm and a leg. In the end I spent it eating lol. Helen and I went to this amazing Creole restaurant, literally a hidden gem that had the most amazing food and drinks that were even too strong for Helen!  I have no idea why it rained on my birthday! In the middle of summer!! Honestly sometimes I can't deal with this country. Then I got changed for
