Before she became the author of THE SEVEN DAUGHTERS OF DUPREE, Nikesha Elise Williams was an eight-year-old girl at her very first book signing meeting the author of the ADDIE series, Connie Porter. One handwritten message—“keep writing”—sparked everything that came after.✒️📑

In this reel, Williams shares how that early moment of inspiration shaped her journey and why seeing yourself reflected in stories can be the first step to creating your own. 🌸
