“Writing is a form of therapy; sometimes I wonder how all those who do not write, compose or paint can manage to escape the madness, melancholia, the panic and fear which is inherent in a human situation.” –Graham Greene

Welcome to All Things Under the Sun!

I'm Tonya and I spent way too long trying to figure out what I’d use this corner of the Internet for. I am a writer, but that’s just one of the many parts of who I am. Back when blogs were queen, I attempted to whisper sweet nothings into the ether, but abandoned my personal blog because I felt like I wasn’t “niche” enough. With a newfound enthusiasm for blogging – and an intense desire to have a space to unload all things under the sun – jumping back into this space seems just right.

I’m not worried about niches here. And I’m not worried about creating content to fit a trend. This is simply a space where I can be my best unapologetic self. From food and travel to personal wellness to parenting to gameschooling to writing craft to books to Black girlhood and women’s lifestyle to all Black everything, if I’m moved by the topic or subject, I’m writing about it. Writing for the culture. Periodt!

This is my all things under the sun world. Won’t you come on in?
