Dear Taghreed Najjar, very pleased to meet you. I am a student from the University of Milan. I study languages, in particular, Arabic and English. I am studying my Master's and I'll soon start my thesis about YA literature in the Arabic world. I am extremely honored of working on your production and translating a few tales of yours into Italian. I am also leaving to Amman in July. Can I leave you a contact? Best

Taghreed Najjar It was a pleasure to meet you in Amman and I wish you all the best.
I hope that we can stay in touch. I would love to hear your news.
Best
Taghreed

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Taghreed Najjar I try not to force it but just relax and go about different things. I found out that during that time my unconscious mind is working on the problem and when I go back to my computer the snag will be gone.
