What should I write about?

Assalaam alaiykum,
Don't worry if you're not the most articulate writer. A grammer check will be run on your story, insh'Allah. Any Spanish stories, articles, and poems will be translated to English as needed. You may want to consider the following questions as a good starting point for your story.

What you may want to mention in your story:

1. Background information.

• Where were you born?
  
• Where did you grow up?
  
• What was life growing up?
  
• What were your friends like?
  
• What kinds of things did you enjoy doing?
  
• Do you have a high school diploma? Any college?
  
  

2. About your family, friends, and current life.

• Are you married?
  
• Do you have kids?
  
• Where do you now live?
  
• How did your family and friends react to your conversion?
  
• How do they deal with your conversion now?
  
• What do you do for a living?
  
• What are your goals? In Islam? Family? Education?
  
  

3. About your experiences with your previous religion.

• Did anything unique prompt you to reconsider your religion?
  
• Why did you leave your previous religion?
  
• Why did you decide to embrace Islam rather than another Christian religion?
  
• Why did you embrace Islam? What about Islam did you find attractive?
  
  

4. About your experiences with your new religion.

• What can Muslims and nonMuslims (Latino and nonLatino) learn from you?
  
• What was most difficult about embracing Islam?
  
• Any interesting experiences/stories as a Latino Muslim?
