Praise for Najya Williams

"A fiercely spiritual and enthralling poetry collection. Najya Williams flexes her gift of rhythmic language and poetic form to tell honest tales about Black girl and womanhood. These poems punched my gut and made me smile at the same time." — Tony Keith Jr., author of How the Boogeyman Became a Poet
 
"Najya Williams’s newest collection, on a date with disappointment, delights in playing with form. Whether it’s pantoum, abecedarian, or prose poem each crackles with 'ferocity and fury,' balancing the savory with the sweet, the world’s anger with the speaker’s kindness. Williams’ states 'This is an ode to / these warriors and wonders, / these saviors and sacrifices, / these fresh-faced grown women / and exhausted little girls.'  And what a worthy and ecstatic lyric she sings." — Erin Elizabeth Smith, author of DOWN

Unique Couple Watch Set
It's a well-made pair of watches, perfect for you and a partner or as a gift for your friends! It comes in a presentable little box that closes magnetically with a heart-shaped white clasp, contrasting the red box, allowing for a highly giftable gift with little effort required when it comes to packaging. The watches themselves are stunning, with extreme attention to detail everywhere you look, whether it's beveled edges or even a crown emblem on the watch's crown. The crystal of the watches takes a unique approach and stylistically protrudes from the watch face, resembling a toned-down pavilion and culet of a diamond. Both watches do a great job pairing each other, and the smaller watch is different from what you'd expect, as there's effort put into its design instead of making a gimmicky downscale of the bigger watch. Overall, they're a great pair of watches that serve as a great gift for partners to match wristwatches, and my only complaint is the male watch's band size, as out of the box it easily fits around my ankle, although adjusting the links was a breeze thanks to the provided tools.

Handsome watch!
Color: Retro Brown band & Black bezel & Blue dial
My 13 year old grandson wanted an “old fashioned” watch so I gave this one to him. He is obsessed with it and wears it every day.
