When Prices Go Up After Prices Have Already Gone Up.
This is not a political piece by any means. It is beyond a reasonable doubt that they have used it to inject our eyes*. The quantity of tomatoes worth five Ghana cedis makes me want to scavenge my life away in the wild. Get me my spear and I’ll get to it. While I scavenge,…… Continue reading When Prices Go Up After Prices Have Already Gone Up.
Nothing I have done
It’s nothing I did or did not do, It’s nothing I said or did not say, It’s not karma trying to get back at me, It’s not the devil seeking me. It’s nothing I have done. Until today, I thought, maybe just maybe certain things happened to me because of something I have done or…… Continue reading Nothing I have done
The Creative Process
Credit: Behance on Pinterest I literally had to blink twice at the mention of my name. No!, I didn’t sign up for this. I thought we were just going to ask their list of questions, not to give a “freestyle”. We had agreed on that. I mean our panel of five, who sat in the…… Continue reading The Creative Process
Before I Say I Do 2022 Edition

If you care to know what that was all about, here is the link to the article https://afro387.com/2017/02/10/before-i-say-i-do/ I was 23 at the time and I still strongly stand by those words. It has actually reminded me of what I value most in…… Continue reading Before I Say I Do 2022 Edition

Lessons Learned
It would be wrong to say we haven’t evolved from when we began. From this evolution has come some lifelong lessons. For starters, our writing has gotten way better over the years. I read some of my oldest post and I can’t help but burst into laughter, others also make me exclaim, “Girl! You is…… Continue reading Lessons Learned
New year, New rituals
Welcome to 2022, if it is not too late to wish you a Happy New Year. We are not about to make a new year’s resolution which would be completely forgotten in a week or two. Rather we want to lay down some positive routines that would put our minds and bodies at ease while…… Continue reading New year, New rituals
Not an option
Giving up has never been an option. Sure, I feel like it sometimes, but I don’t think I will ever go through with it. Some may think it is just putting your thoughts into words, but as easy as it may sound, it gets hard. Any creative person can attest to the fact that in…… Continue reading Not an option
How it Started
It all began 5 years ago, 24th January 2017. I was done with my mandatory service(national service) after my undergraduate studies. Home and bored for six months, job hunting wasn’t looking good. My one true sponsor(mum) was generous enough to give me money to buy my very first brand new laptop. I got a Lenovo…… Continue reading How it Started
