Herat, Afghanistan
I was raised in Dari, pashto. (languages)
I read and write in Dari, English. (languages)
I write Poetry, Short_stories. (genres)
I write for
private, public online.
Reason why I write: I think writing is the only way to fight against ignorance. Writing is a clear way that leads us to enlightenment and thinking. Write; And protesting and narrating the facts of life is the heaviest mission placed on the shoulders of a poet or writer.
My favourite authors are Authors who write about Freedom, women, and The problems of society and local stories that occur in the heart of different communities.
My favourite stories on The GOAT PoL include Death of a Legendary hunter , Part 5. “Women in chaos” , I Was Wrong? ,
My favourite subject(s) to write about include I would like to write more about the situation of women and the deprived section of the society and their feelings. From simple everyday things that happen to us. Of those who have always been oppressed.
The most difficult part I find about writing is Because my main language is Farsi-Dari. I find it difficult to write academically in English. But I will try to solve my academic writing problems with the help of the editors on the site. Another issue is my situation and my security problems in Afghanistan. That always bothers me. The nation must fight
Most rewarding moment as a writer for me is My most rewarding moment as a writer is when someone tells me that a text I wrote made them feel less alone. Not because the writing was “beautiful” or technically strong, but because it reached another person at the level of experience and emotion. I think writing becomes meaningful exactly there — when a private pain, fear, or thought suddenly becomes collective. Another rewarding part is discovering, through writing itself, things I could not understand before. Sometimes I begin with confusion, anger, or silence, and during the process the language opens a new way of seeing the world. For me, writing is not only expression; it is also a way of thinking, resisting, and surviving.
