MY JOURNEY FROM BANKING TO INSURANCE TO WRITING

MY JOURNEY FROM BANKING TO INSURANCE  TO

                                      WRITING

I have spent a lot of time on this blog advertising my books.

Today I will tell you something about me.

It occurred to me that readers want to know why I have written multiple genres.

In case you have now started to follow my blog, I will bring you up-to-date.

I have written 5 Memoirs, 3 Children's books, 3 Romance, 7 Science Fiction,  3 Self-Help, 4 Mysteries,  1 Conspiracy Thriller,  1 Psychological thriller,  12 Poetry books, and 8 Christian Books. 

I have also compiled 7 Anthologies and 6 Magazines for the How to Write for Success Literary Forum, of which I am the Founder, and for The International Chamber of Writers and Artists  [CIESART], as National President for Trinidad and Tobago.

I published 60 books and I cannot give details of each one, but I will try to generalize and be brief.

My first book was a memoir of my near-death experience with cancer. I am Cancer Free was a No. 1 bestseller and won an award for Health and Fitness from Reader's Favorite International.

That success spurred me on to write another.

I wrote My Life as a Banker and that book was popular with many of my former banker friends who were interested in the changes that the bank made over the years, changes in the bank's attitude towards its employees throughout my working years, and the important roles I played to bring about changes.

The book won second place in Bio's/Memoirs in Metamorph Publishing Summer Indie Book Awards 2016.

I continued writing and penned a book titled Retirement is Fun. In that book, I wrote about my new career in Insurance where I qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table six times in a row. I also described my many travel adventures around the world. From the great reviews I received, I was inspired to continue writing and I wrote my Father's Memoirs, and my Travel Memoirs.

Since I had no more memoirs to write I tried Children's books, moved on to Romance and won more awards, and then I delved into Science Fiction. 

My science fiction novel ZEEKA CHRONICLES also won an award in Reader's Favorite International.

After such great success, I wrote HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS and it was another winner. I followed up with How to Write for Success II, and Self-Publishing Tips.

My imagination began to give me ideas about Mystery novels, Conspiracy theories, and Psychological thrillers and I wrote more books.

Poetry suddenly seemed very attractive and I wrote 12 poetry books which were all bestsellers upon New Release.

Because of the chaotic state of the world, I suddenly got an urge to write Christian books and I wrote eight of them, four of which are poetic.

It has been an exciting journey for me, organizing and participating in book signings and book fairs.

 I have won Literary awards in the USA, Peru, Kazakhstan, Seychelles, Nigeria, India, Romania, Argentina, Ukraine, Morocco, Philippines, Oman, Hong Kong, Portugal, Uruguay, Indonesia, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Switzerland, Italy, Sri Lanka, Austria, Russia, Germany, Syria, Portugal, Czech Republic, Hungary, Chile, Egypt, Honduras, Mexico, Pakistan, Cuba, China, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Bosnia, Trinidad and Tobago, and the UK.

I also received several awards from CIESART Spain. 

In 2024 I was honoured with the PLATO AWARD by CIESART.

The values highlighted by PLATO are Wisdom, Temperance,

 Courage, Justice, and more.   

I am an advocate for Peace, Suicide Prevention, and Against

Domestic Violence.

 Read exciting memoirs about Banking, Retirement, Cancer, and Exotic Travels

A Four-Book Memoir Series written by Trinidadian Author Brenda Mohammed is set in Trinidad and Tobago.

The first book, MY LIFE AS A BANKER, starts with the author's early life and childhood, leading up to her first job which was banking.

After a successful banking career spanning several years, Brenda was promoted to a senior managerial position.

In her memoir, RETIREMENT IS FUN, which is a sequel to My Life as a Banker - A Life Worth Living, Brenda describes her many wonderful experiences at the end of her banking career.

Reluctant to move on from banking, she amazes herself when she turned down an offer to work in a higher position at another bank.

She chose Insurance instead, and for her, it turned out to be the better choice.

Of course, life is not a bed of roses, and in the book I AM CANCER FREE, you will read how Brenda stands out as a beacon of light throughout every challenge she faces.

In her pictorial travel book of priceless memories, TRAVEL MEMOIRS WITH PICTURES, she describes countries visited, and the wonderful times she and her family had on their tourist trips.

Lovers of Memoirs will love these books.
