I try to read a lot, I think a lot alone and each time I do, it feels like I’m having a conversation in my head, seriously! I`ve also been very passionate about writing since childhood as I still remember one of my first novels- Too Long A Sacrifice by Mills and Boon. This book never leaves my mind because it was seized by my primary school head mistress when she saw me reading it in class. She was like “Why are you reading a book like this”? “My aunt gave me”, I answered. “Really? Your aunt gave you a book like this to read at this age”? She continued, getting really pissed. Of course I was speechless, then later I started defending myself in front of my classmates, telling them there was nothing bad in the book, one of then opted to read and when he did he was like, “Yeah, the only two bad words I saw there are love and kissing” LOL!
As I grew older, I read more and naturally a passion to
write someday was nursed. I first heard the word blog in 2007 during a
course on the Internet as a trainee in a school of Journalism. I still remember
the words of my lecturer and now friend Dr. Baba Wame when he said “…Mais ici
au Cameroun il n’y a presque pas de blogs, c’est culturel”. I want to change
that! I started reading a seemingly endless list of blogs few years back then I
kept saying to myself, I’ll have mine someday, someday is here and I’m so excited
to finally have a forum to upload my crowded mind and celebrate life.
I’m starting a virtual family and trust me when I say it’s
going to be an enviable one, Welcome on board!
Ma sis this is actually a dream come true for you. I am happy you brought your dream to life. Thumbs up. I will watch out for all your posts. Better days lie ahead. And to your story I can't help but laugh at your classmate who said he knows the only bad words are Love and Kissing.How come at that age he knew they were bad.Very interesting write up.Looking forward to more of such.

ReplyDeleteOne lesson i learnt about life is never relent until you get your DREAMS out of your chest. My bossom friend, our dreams sometimes scares the hell out of us and the most difficult is starting. That you've overcome. Reading those carefully selected words tells me your early interest in reading has developed into an abiding passion for writing. Doing what you've longed for. Kudos.
