Author Bio: Amazon Kindle #1 Best Seller. No publicly known self-published author from a working-class or council-estate background has held the #1 spot on Amazon for five months, followed by #2 for two months, then charting #3 in the eight month. Many authors have achieved bestseller success, but month-by-month chart dominance combined with a working-class story remains unclaimed, a challenge she is proud to take on. Alia is a survivor, a truth-teller, and a poet who has reclaimed her voice through the power of words. In her searing debut memoir Before I Was Born, She Did This, she lays bare a childhood marked by cruelty, silence, and systemic failure, and the resilience that carried her through. Raised under a false identity and trapped in a home where neglect and abuse were routine, Alia endured the unimaginable. Starved, isolated, and ignored even while on the child protection register, she defied every odd simply by surviving. At 15, she broke free, finding refuge in the kindness of others and in the healing strength of poetry. Her journey didn’t end with escape. It deepened, as she uncovered shocking truths about her mother’s past and began to confront the legacy of trauma head-on. Through writing, performance, and the spoken word collective Raw, Alia found a space to reclaim her story, boldly, unapologetically, and without filters. Today, she uses her voice to illuminate what many would rather keep hidden. Her work is gritty, necessary, and brave, shining a light on survival, identity, and the fierce act of choosing to live.
