That's just it. Often times, I wake up at 2-3am just to write because there's something that needs to be written. Only God knows the extent of the chaos in my head. My friends often ask me how I do this writing thing. 👇 This, right here, is how.

Lool. This has been my mantra since 2019 and the awards/prizes this mantra fetched me is no joke. I have basically won a prize starting 2018 straight to 2024 with this mantra.

Love this image. Merry Christmas to you all and special wish to the bookies. By this time when I was younger, my throat would be sore from singing Christmas songs with my friends, Nneka and Chinenye. I wish them merry Christmas wherever they are now. ❤️ Photo:Evidence gbogboniche

I recieved two rejections this December. - The first came as a long personal rejection, talking about my craft and was accompanied by a gift (A powerful workbook) - The second came as a short personal rejection asking me to send in another piece ASAP. Those were wins too.❤️

I watch some movies, then go out for a walk. Those two do the magic for me. I always come back refreshed and ready to do more writing.

This is me here. Writing this Manuscript was quite the adventure especially it been written in pidgin. Glad to see it airing. Listen to this rollercoaster story of Anisa. This is also about us all aiming for the bog directly or indirectly. *Dream* #Literature #Naija #stories

This was my January in a nutshell. It has been adventurous. And honestly, I'm still a bit overwhelmed by it, but that is a welcomed feeling. It smells of hard work and achievements. Hello February, please be beautiful too. Take me on more adventure.

And my February began like this. 😅 This was yesterday, 3rd February, at the press conference of Making Minna a UNESCO city of Literature in Nigeria. I'm standing right beside my photo to the right in white veil and glasses. February is looking to be beautiful and fun. ❤️
