I AM AN INTERNATIONAL WRITER

I am Shofia Asri, an International writer. I can't imagine I can be an International Writer like I had now. I used just a little girl who likes to write stories on a daily diary. Write a poem based on stories of everyday. Be an International writer is my dream since I was child.Who could have thought? Who knows? The God's plan is more beautiful.

I wrote many books. I have 50 books now. 35 of the books are fiction, and 15 others are non-fiction. Some of the titles of the books are: Mengubah Mata Angin, Impian Merangkul Masa, Alur Nada Secangkir Kopi. Mengubah Mata Angin got appreciation as “The Most Favorite Book in 2015-2019” and “The Inspirited Book IBF 2016.” “Great Mother Great Teacher,” “Meraih Negeri Impian: Panduan Tepat Kuliah di Luar Negeri,” and “Muslimah dan Singgasananya,” are some of the title of my non-fiction book.

The book on the tittle "Rose on the Salt" was translated into 63 languages. This is the great book I love that I was written. I wrote this book when I was a new comer in Japan in 2018. "Rose on the Salt" got the Nobel early 2019 in the of literature. I was the woman who got the Nobel Prize after Alice Munro from Canada in 2013. Getting the Nobel Prize was my dream in that time.

 

When I attended that program I met many friends around the world. Certainly, they came from different countries. I met Hafidzah from Lebanon who getting the Nobel on sociality, Fukizawa from Japan who getting two Nobels in that time. The Nobels are Technology and Astronomy. Then there are many others. Besides that, I also attended Iowa Writing Programme in US end 2017.  

I went through the entire world gratis. All of journey I walked on was based on my writing. So I didn’t take my money to go through all of place whole the world. The travel was non-payment because I didn’t take my money for that.

All of I do is based on predilection. I love my work. I love what I do .Then International writer is the job that I love to do. I love writing. Then I write. Now in 2024, I am an International writer.
