Ciao! My name is Nikkiema S. Harris, and I am an author whose work intersects psychology, emotional well-being, and spiritual growth, emphasizing African-American culture. Through my writing, I encourage readers to pursue their purpose and engage with the complexities of real-life challenges, such as grief, parenthood, identity issues, racial injustice, and other related struggles.

My deep appreciation for writing came about when I was eight, as it allowed me to express myself sincerely without judgment, fear, or guilt. I began putting random words together, then forming them into sentences in hopes that they would make sense. From then on, my creativity took over, and I began writing poetry, a form of writing that allows one to put one's feelings into words and incorporate various meanings that give insight into one's life, culture, and values.

Poetry has given me a solid foundation and the confidence to pursue other literary genres, including playwriting, short narratives, and beyond. Ultimately, it has provided a diverse space for my imagination, creativity, and emotions to cultivate multiple stories in various ways and settings.
