Last Monday, March 30th, 2015 after publishing my post about “The Blog Tour Award,” I got message from my beautiful sisterthemissiontomars, she informed me that she nominated me for Blog Tour Award. Thank you very much for nominating me, dear Sister! You always support me!
She is a beautiful blogger, a beautiful poet and so talented at writing short stories. And….we’re very close although we haven’t met before. Please visit her awesome blog!
Okay, I’ll share my creative writing process! I’m in learning to become a good writer, and I’ve seen many good writers here and they have written in various genres. Do you believe in me my friends, I learn from you! ❤
Rules:
1. Pass the Tour Award up to four other bloggers!
2. Give the rules!
3. Answer four (4) questions about your creative process which lets other bloggers and visitors know what inspires you to do your task.
4. Compose a one-time post on a specific Monday (date given from your nominator).
Here are my answers for the four questions!
1. What I’m working on at the moment?
Now, the answer is different, because I’m working other work. Besides offering my handwriting, I’m learning how to make design and editing photos too. I’m fond of writing and art! I am an art lover!
2. How does my work differ from others in my genre?
I’m sure everyone has unique style at his/her writing. I do write everything what come to my mind in any topics. One thing that I really notice, I’m trying to enjoy my writing activity, that’s why I choose simple topics. If I have to post something hard, I tried to make it simple and enjoyable to read. I love “expression” a lot!
3. Why do I write and create what do I do?
I write because I love writing. Before blogging, I had written some short stories in Indonesian language and offered to online media, but I failed, and I was getting many ideas while finishing my short story, it made me confused to choose what should I write first.That’s why I took decision to improve my English writing and trying the new experience in English writing. So, my main purpose to write is improving my English. Then improving my writing skill, and sharing my Islāmic knowledge to other. First, it should give benefit to me before other. I hope I can share something beneficial here.
4. How does my writing and creative process work?
To be honest, I won’t find difficult ideas for my writing. I usually get the ideas according to my life, family especially children, people experiences and nature. Really, by seeing the nature I always get the new ideas. I just started following writing 101, when the other bloggers had joined it earlier than me. Better late than none! Sometimes I don’t put my ideas directly to my blog, but I only notice big point from them then arrange become posts. This time, I often get ideas from my drawing.
Alhamdulillah, I get the second chance for sharing this blog tour.

When I received the message from Sister Saadia Haq about this award, I was doubtful about it. I’m a new blogger and I’m an English learner. I had never thought about any awards before. But, I admit this is the third blogger awards that I have ever received. Alhamdulillah.
Firstly I have to be thankful to Allah The Almighty, because it came from Him. As Allah said in Surah Ibrahim verse:7.
Now, the time for me to thankful to a great blogger , an inter-sectional feminist and peace activist Sister Saadia Haq for the Sisterhood of The World Bloggers Award, an award which gives credit and acknowledges deserving women on a global scale! An award that allows women to support each other especially in blogging. Awesome award!

Her career deals within the human rights issues. Thank you very much Sister for nominating me for this award. May Allah reward your kindness!

Then, I’ll answer the 10 questions from Sister Saadia, 🙂

What ambitions you seek in this world?
I have written in my page “About Me” , I want to share my little Islamic knowledge with other all over the world through blogging or another writing activity. It can be realize if I write in English. Because most of the people in the world using English as their language in their lives . The purpose is only for Allah. I hope I’ll get benefits from my posts, and the other too.
What inspires you to blog?
As an English learner who has a dream as a professional writer, I use blog for mastering my English especially in writing activity. My online English teachers said to me, “you need practice a lot in writing if you want to be an English writer.” Time by time I tried to find the ideas that must be relevance with Islamic knowledge. I want to be better time by time. Therefore I have to read a lot about Islamic knowledge. With this activity I can learn more than share it to other. Take and give, I think.
How do you select topics to blog upon?
Honestly, I did not choose a special topic before writing. But, when I got the ideas, I always think how to combine these ideas with qur’an and hadith. From everyday moments, and everything. Or I just write my expression totally such as poems. I only write what I read, I hear, I see and I feel. Very simple!
Do you think blogging as social media is constructive for engaging with people?
As far as I’m concerned, yes is constructive for engaging with people. Do you believe me, I got many wonderful friends through blogging?
Have you received solidarity and support for writing what you write?
Yes I have. I’ll tell you a little about it. My first English teacher in blogging was Sis Theresa Corbin. She was my first follower, my inspirer. She guided me step by step in blogging, untill I became who I am today. Then I got Sis Stephanie, Sis Papatia, Sis Sumaira, and De Moniba. They always support me, giving helps for editing my posts. And you too Sis Saadia, you always support me. And we did a collaboration, right? I have received it from another bloggers too that I can’t mention them one by one. I’m very blessed to have them all.
When faced with opposition, what’s your reaction?
Truthfully, I don’t like to waste my time for debate with person in any topics. I’ll remain keep silence. Except, if the opposite blaspheming or insult my religion and against the humanity. I’ll speak up! Then give all the result to Allah. I’ll not force them to follow my mind / opinion.
Any humanitarian campaigns which you support/or would love to support?
