Featured Interview With Elizabeth Kazeem
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born into a family of eight, my parents included, don’t judge my parents until you meet them, they love children. My family was such that reading books, doing house chores and proving each day that you’re disciplined was far appreciated than a gift of many hampers. Being bred in the tropics, in a family where so much love abound gave room for development of traits and talents.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I took to reading since I could say my name. I loved reading so much that I could exchange my dinner for a good book to read. Then I started writing. I began with illustrations, you know, the childish drawings you see in children friendly books. I’d illustrate a whole story and then search for someone to narrate it to. Then I graduated to telling stories, whenever I had the opportunity to share a story with friends, I didn’t narrate books I read, I gave my own story. They always enjoyed it anyway. I started real time writing in senior school.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Lisa Jewel, Wanitta Prakks, Joyce Meyer and Joel Osteen. My favourite genre, inspirational, romance and thriller. God inspires me in my writing. All I need to do is pray and take a pen.
