And I am doing this while living through the war in Gaza, facing displacement, fear, grief, loss, constant anxiety, and a life that often feels nearly impossible. I hope you will read it, share it, and help it reach as many people as possible. Your support means a lot!

I used to have a Substack account with a real community of readers. I even reached #1 in an international category, but then I suddenly lost access to my previous page, this one: substack.com/@samahzaqo… I have to start over from scratch, posting again my pieces on: substack.com/@samazah

The road to Khan Younis - We Are Not Numbers
On my third trip to the city, everything felt different—strange, suffocating, and heavy.

My writings have been featured in a play performed in the United States and in a big event held in Vancouver, Canada. I am also part of a zine project, and my zine won the best political zine category at Wellington Zinefest. I have also contributed to a book that will be published soon.

This was once the view from my purple room. Now my home is gone, and so is my neighborhood. Even the photos that hung on the walls disappeared with everything else. I used to love winter, but living in tents has made me hate it. I miss the life I had before. #Gaza #Writing #Palestine #Winter

I once had a Substack account with over 9k followers and subscribers, but I suddenly lost access to it. I tried to regain access, but it didn't work, so I created a new account to share my writings from Gaza. Please subscribe and share! substack.com/@samazah

I’m so glad and proud to have my piece published on Electronic Intifada. I grant it to my grandfather who passed away during this war on Gaza! Kindly reach my piece here: electronicintifada.net/content/disp...

Displacement killed my grandfather
The entire way to the next shelter, my grandfather repeated, “I want to go back to my home.”
