In that time, she has written for devised works that dealt with gender dysphoria, as well as cultural and religious identity. She has also written poetry that was included in Write the World’s ‘Best Of’ annual magazine in 2016.When @raiya_writes, she is especially intrigued by the rawness, passion and mystique behind her personal experiences. The grey areas of life, society and culture are constantly on her mind, and as a young woman, empowerment and spiritual healing are her greatest ideals. These form the backbone of her writing.Mentioned in this episode:BBLUndercover AsiaTo submit a question, please visit http://www.speakpipe.com/theatreofothers for voice recording or submit an email to [email protected] Messages may be quoted by name unless the writer stipulates otherwiseIf you enjoyed this week´s podcast, we´d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
