Dola Amodu was a nurse practitioner for over four decades, a profession she now misses so much. After retirement and not wanting to let her brain go to sleep, she went to study English and afterwards attended a writing college as a distance learning student. She was inspired to write after becoming a grandmother and she had to read books to her grandchildren. ‘If they would want to listen to what others write, why can’t I write for them to read?’ She asked herself. That was the beginning of the journey to Destiny, her first novel.
