Morenike' is a Pisces with a wild imagination and carpel tunnel.
Morenikè is a native of Jackson, Mississippi. She attended Provine High School and graduated from Jackson State University with a Bachelor’s in English. A graduate school dropout, Nija decided to focus on her writing and produced her first short film, "Shoe-icide," in 2011 while simultaneously releasing her debut and sophomore novel, "Taste of Insanity" and "SHHH," respectively. Morenikè has been writing short stories and poems since she was a young girl in elementary school. Her passion for reading and writing stemmed from her early introduction to reading from her parents. She states that, “Reading was very important in my home, my parents’ relationship started from the discussion of a book, reading created my family.” Her goals are to one day become a world-renowned novelist, focusing on African American fiction, poems, short stories, film, and tv shows that reflect the African American community. Nija currently resides in Dallas, TX and is working on the completion of a third novel, "Running from Color," and a screenplay.

I hope everyone has enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday; one thing I am grateful for is the feedback from my editor about my manuscript:
"Running from Color introduces readers to the sometimes heart-rending and sometimes inspirational story of a family of women who build meaningful lives and relationships in the midst of institutionalized violence. Although the events in the manuscript take place in the past, the emotions and experiences will resonate strongly with readers today. Readers will enjoy the relatable characters and the interesting story, and the underlying themes of resilience, strength, family, love, racism, and sexism will elicit both thought and emotion. All in all, this is a strong and engaging work of literary fiction."
I can't wait to share this finished novel with you; everything is right on schedule and I am currently in the process of editing & polishing the manuscript and working with a book cover designer. Thank you for your patience and continuous support!
