Welcome

Welcome to my blog! My name is Tolulope Popoola (aka Favoured Girl), and I'm a reader, writer and lover of books and literature. I used to be an Accountant, until I rediscovered my love for writing and became a full-time writer in 2008. I'm the creator and one of the writers for the fiction series and book, In My Dreams It Was Simpler. I'm currently working on a novel based on the series, and a collection of short stories.

I write short stories, poems and articles for magazines. This blog features some of my work, including excerpts from my novel. I'm also going to feature interviews with other writers, excerpts from upcoming authors and reviews of other books that I've read. Hope you enjoy your visit here!
