The Island Writer
Islands are magical places full of wisdom, weather and wild places. Join me in poetry, ethnography and stories from the islands of the world.

What's Being Said
You have always inspired me to achieve more in life and to become a better version of myself. I will never forget this and I take away important life lessons from our interactions. I could say more, but the list would be endless. I just thought that I should thank you again for everything again.

It is rare for an academic journal to have the chance to publish a real writer, like yourself. Most academics are hacks, don’t you find?

On Facebook the other day I said I owe you an email. I wanted to tell you how I signed up for anthropology completely by mistake ( a most embarrassing misunderstanding). I wondered (late, frazzled) into that lecture hall completely unawares of what wonders were in store for me. Your lectures on slavery and the diaspora were so inspiring, so mind-shifting, they completely changed my life.
