SHARON IFEPARIOLA ADEGBOYE
WRITER, SINGER, MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER, BUSINESS OWNER
ANS: I come from a generation
of writers so most times I wonder
if writing for me is hereditary, lol.
I love to write, as an introvert I
prefer to write than to talk so
growing up I wrote more. One
other thing that inspired my
writing is the fact that I love
to motivate and inspire so
whenever I go through a trying
time, I either write about it or
sing about it, this is how I wrote
my first published book titled
The waiting period at the age
of 24.
YEARS
OF
WRITING...
(HOW LONG HAVE YOU
BEEN WRITING?)
ANS: I have been writing since
I was a teenager, I wrote short
stories and poems but my first
published book was in 2009 so
10 years now

TALK US THROUGH SOME
OF YOUR BOOKS
ANS: My first book titled
waiting period was written while
I was waiting to gain admission
into college and despite me
having the best result in my
local government, I did get
admission on time so I wrote
the book to encourage those
going through a “pause” in their
life. My second published book
titled Through it all is a book I
wrote a few days after I lost my
4days old baby, I was writing
this book and crying, the tears
started reducing while I wrote
daily and Its an encouragement
to those going through a stormy
time in life.
“
What inspires me
is purpose, my burning
desire to help others
become a better
version of themselves.
