IG LIVE: On the ancient Hawaiian practice of the journey of forgiveness with author Malika Baxtiyorovna
I write because I have a story to tell. For more than thirteen years I have been writing scripts, short stories, and novels sharing my journey as a woman who has witnessed abuse and as a result ended up being a single mother. Through my writing I want to reach out to women like myself and empower them.
How did you come up with your business idea? What inspired you?
I have been writing for more than thirteen years. Writing is something I take after my late grandfather, who during his lifetime wrote a poetry collection and an autobiography. My first project was a script on the topic of the 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐭. I still recall my visit to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, which was an eye-opening event. By looking at the victim's photos, I couldn't help but grow emotional. It pained me to see the fear in their eyes, their sadness, and grief. Thus, I decided to dedicate my work to all those people whose lives perished during the War.
