Finding my voice, Telling my story

I remember right where I was sitting the first time I wrote an inspirational write-up; on the bed of my quiet bedroom I was getting mature and it scared me, I put my fears on the paper, not intending to write something. I just let the words flow out of my pen ,describing where I want to be as age was pushing forward.

I showed the write-up to my mum who was surprised and loved it .My mum encouragement gave me the support I needed to keep writing .I began to read books and wrote every single day about the things that happens around me.i had to write whether I felt inspired or not . By the end of my secondary education I had written three editions even though it felt bad I hadn’t published ,I believe someday everyone will get to read them.

I thought of myself as a writer and a barrister but life threw it back at me that it was not what I wanted for you. I got a course in a profound University where I study Education and Mass communication which is something I enjoy now.

What would it be like if I stopped writing ? So, I dug in and wrote .I wrote about Parenting, Relationship, Marriage and my society . someday I’d like to support others who write too.

My Journey as a writer has taught me alot of things about life and myself ,but most important thing I’ve learned is that I don’t give up .it takes more than a natural talent to become good at something you simply have to do and I know it will serve me well in school and beyond.
