, While writing for Arab readers, it is very important to think about how to get your ideas across.
I would, first, advise them to start writing about what they know best (i.e. themselves, their immediate environments, feelings, etc.).
I have spent many years in Paris. I got married there, started my small family there, and received my PhD at the Sorbonne.
