About Anselm Ezemson

I am glad you are here. I hope you will enjoy exploring my books, blog posts, and resources for both readers and aspiring writers.

A little about me: I was born in Côte d’Ivoire, shaped by the rhythms of Ghana, the perspectives of the UK, and the deep roots of my Nigerian heritage. My life is a blend of cultures, journeys, and reinventions.

These lived experiences breathe through my work; from the lyrical, thought-provoking anthology Human of My Kind, which reflects on our shared humanity and inner resilience, to the soul-baring honesty of my memoir Chasing Closure: Life on the Edge of Belonging.

In Chasing Closure, I invite readers into the intimate spaces of my life, navigating displacement, confronting cultural rejection, and finding healing in faith and self-acceptance. My writing can be raw, reflective, and deeply human, offering hope to anyone who has ever felt caught between worlds.

Though I call myself more a story writer than a storyteller, I have a deep love for poetry. As a human resources leader, my words often explore themes of identity, belonging, faith, and the quiet strength we carry within.

Beyond the page, I am passionate about creating spaces where every voice feels seen, heard, and valued; a commitment that fuels my professional leadership, my faith, and my art.
