Delali is the creator of ScriptLit, a revolutionary literary and screen genre, making screenplays accessible in e-book and book format as an enjoyable literary art for readers and TV and Film enthusiasts while empowering storytellers and screenwriters to share their stories how they wish and earn income directly, no gatekeepers required.

One of her screenplays was shortlisted in 2022 by Stage 32 and the Black Boy / Black Girl Writes Mentorship Initiative, created by Mike Gauyo, a writer on the HBO series Insecure by Issa Rae.

She was part of the production team for the short film Black Joy, directed by Kemi Fatoba for DADDY Magazine. In July 2024, she presented her first exhibition titled Afropean Girl, a photography series in collaboration with photographer Brian Ngugi, exploring the impact of discrimination and racism on the lives of Black women in Europe, supported by the pfd Kreuzberg.

Delali is also the co-editor of the Togetherness anthology by Poetry Meets in Berlin.

As a journalist, Delali has written for magazines based in the US, the UK, Luxembourg, Germany and Ivory Coast, in both English and French. She writes for ELLE Luxembourg.
