Zainab Hassan
Zainab Hassan is a writer with a deep appreciation for the quiet stories that often go unnoticed. Drawn to the emotional landscapes of family, memory, and inheritance, her writing explores the things people pass down without intending to — objects, silences, habits, and the ways love survives even when words fall short. These essays mark her first published submission. More of her writing journey can be found on Instagram at @lost.ininknpaper.
