Salutations and welcome to NuDawn Diary, part of NuDawn NuDay.

My name is Dawn Williams, aka NuDawn, and after a life changing experience a few years ago I decided (with a little push!), to start writing blogs to share with the masses.

I’ve touched upon quite a few subjects to date, and I really hope that you’ll enjoy reading about them and the life, times, thoughts and opinions of a way too Black to stand back woman trying to make it through life – but ultimately trying to keep it real!

I call it my diary because it’s my real thoughts in real talk. 

THERE ARE CUSS WORDS, SLANG AND BROKEN ENGLISH!

I don’t expect you to agree with me on everything and I’m up for a healthy debate, but you have been warned! If you’re easily offended I may not be the one for you! Below are my uncategorised blogs, or you could check out the different categories available for you to get stuck into!

Family Matters – Blood may well be thicker than water, but sometimes that just makes it harder to swallow!

R.I.P’d Off! – A series of posts relating to various incidents of being Black whilst breathing.

The Big C And Me – Accompany me on my cancer journey.

BLAPOW! – My new blog & podcast combo, celebrating the Blacknificent Power of…whatever it happens to be! I’m starting with women who are making their mark in my hometown as a project for Black History Month, but will be covering a number of topics overall.

Poetry & Particulars – A random selection of poems and odds and sods.

Aside from the blogs and podcasts there is my online shop, NuDawn NuDay, which will be up and running soon, offering a selection of Afrocentric cards, T-shirts and more to come.

STAY BLESSED AND ENJOY THE REST!
