Ni ni simone biography

•

She has been in love with writing since she was a child.

Her affair with words resonates with teens and adult readers.

The stories she is privileged to tell are mixed with little humor and life lessons.

Her work with teens as a social worker was also a catalyst in jumpstarting her career for writing for teens. She wrote her first teen novel, ‘Shorty Like Mine,’ in two weeks. She loved the story and ten books later is now hooked on writing for teens. One of Whitaker’s strengths as a writer is her ability to observe the challenges teens are faced with today and incorporate it into her stories. Her new series, the ‘Throwback Diaries,’ accurately describes what happens in the lives of second generation adults affected by the crack epidemic within the African-American community. As Whitaker describes, this series will take the reader on a journey with teenagers who have nothing, no stable homelife, poor family life, and little guidance from parents/grandparents who have personal issues.

Some of her most popular books to date are, “Shorty Like Mine,” “Upgrade You,” and best selling, “Teenage Love Affair.” &n
