None TV adaptations of books almost never go well And the ones that do don't hit the same

Olúwásèyí🥂 Finding out my favorite poets were all depressed didn’t sit well with me, now I barely read poetry. Imagine reading and feeling beautiful words from a very sad soul, I was always ask at the end what happened?

Olúwásèyí🥂 My best poems were written when i was not in a very good place. Most of the best poets we know did from a place of pain or certain kind of sadness. And one thing i know is the more a man knows, the unhappier and lonelier he is.

My best poems were written when I was grieving and depressed

Just a matter of time - James Hadley Chase

Looking forward to The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

Olúwásèyí🥂 Shadow slave. I’d be on top of the moon if it gets adapted into an Anime. I’m already overwhelmed that Lord of the Mysteries is being made into an anime, but please, they should follow suit with Shadow Slave

There was a time this was a thing on Facebook. So many poets committing suicide.

-Abercrombie's Age of Madness trilogy, First Law trilogy -Red Rising series -The Divine Cities trilogy -Freshwater

When I think of Stay with me, what stays with me is Akin’s wickedness. He watched the woman who he claimed to love go through so much humiliation knowing fully well he was the reason she was running mad. I’ll never forget.

studies suggest artists, including poets, may experience higher rates of mental health conditions. & even at that, correlation isn't causation. also, beyond cultural mythos & romanticisation, poets too suffer untreated mental illness, substance abuse, personal trauma, exile...

Nope. Solid grasp of language is though.

Purple Hibiscus by Adichie and The Charm School by DeMille I need to see Eugene’s face as he metes out his sacred cruelties those punishments hidden in penance, so we can feel what Kambili and Jaja cannot say. And I need to see Sam Hollis inside that Soviet-made illusion😩

Rosewater. I’m very curious to see what we can do in the sci-fi space

one day it’ll be greenlit and you guys will read it, regretting that you didn’t listen to me sooner

Unpopular opinion- don’t come for me: Books shouldn’t be adapted into movies or TV series. One of the best things about books is how they invite you to imagine everything; characters, settings, emotions; all in your own way. Movie adaptations often fall short of capturing...

Olúwásèyí🥂 It's almost sacrosanct, the best books almost always have so heartbreaking stuff, then you have African writers that barely write anything non-gloomy As they say, A broken heart makes for good art.
