Hi. My name is Leila, and this is pieces.
pieces is my writer’s journal, where I share thoughts, free-writes, lyrics, fragments of works-in-progress, scenes, chapters, and journal entries. The pieces I share here may well inform longer works in the future.
I want to share pieces with readers, writers, thinkers, artists, friends, more-than-friends, peers, loved ones, and people I don’t yet know but surely will come to know through this publication.
I hope I can inspire you to write, no matter what shape your writing takes, no matter how often it happens, and whether you write with words, symbols, sounds, your body, thoughts inside your head that only you are privy to, or in a language I don’t speak. And if not write, I hope I can make you feel.
pieces will be personal and intimate; I will pull from my notebooks, journals and voice notes to give you an honest look at what moves me to write.
Subscribe to pieces today, and receive the first publication in your email inbox on Friday 26th August
pieces will hit your inbox on the last Friday of every month. If you subscribe today, you will receive the first publication on Friday 26th August.
pieces will remain free for the foreseeable future. I’m not about that starving artist lifestyle, but if I do monetise any part of pieces, the content behind the paywall will be niche (say, the character descriptions for my first TV show? Nudes? Feet pictures? Suggestions welcome…) I’d like to get to know my readers first, and then go from there.
Thank you for reading. See you at the end of the month!
Love | Leila xoxo
Amazing!!! I already feel like even the captions for some of your work on insta has me intrigued or leaves me reflecting on how talented you are. So looking forward to receiving, and subsequently reading, the first publication. Mila
Can’t wait for my monthly read xoxo
