The Struggles of Life and Migrations Lilian Adusu

The author, Lilian Adusu, was born in Ghana - West Africa. She is the third born of a family of seven; made up of two brothers and four other sisters including herself makes them five. They are all alive and well; they are very close and supportive of each other.

Lilian lost her father, Mr Joseph Tetteh Zoe Adusu, in January 2008. Her mother, Mrs Felicia Adjoa Obenewaa Adusu, is still alive and well. Lilian's dad called her 'Mother' saying that she looks like his mother; and that made Lilian feel quite special.

Lilian grew up to have a set of twin boys, Keli and Elike, then Tenu, a girl, who was born one year and three months after the twins, making them look like triplets. Lilian studied Creative Writing and English at the University of Greenwich as a mature student; where she graduated with a Second-Class Uppers Degree. She soon after, took a postgraduate study to become an Early Years Professional, and now manages a Children's Day Nursery; but she still loves to write. Lilian said, that most of the inspirations for her writing were from her childhood ability to write stories in her head; that was long before she grew up to hear about Creative Writing or even though studying to become a writer.
