I don't know about most persons but for me, I basically see myself as one who has so much to offer, like a box of chocolate to the chocolate lover. I feel my whole life is filled with a lot and dishing them out won't make me empty but will create room for more.
A lot of people feel being a poet or spoken word artiste, you are filled with so much content but fail to realize that we experience writer's block sometimes and in most cases, it takes a long while before we come out from such.
There are most days I feel so excited and there is nothing to write about, like I just stare at my book and it looks like an alien to me. Other days, I feel so sad, and I end up writing everywhere, on everything I see.
I am one person who gets inspired by myself.I feel there's someone out there who needs to hear about me, who needs to feel what I feel so he/she doesn't feel alone. A lot of my contents are based on true life experiences - my experiences and I feel they can help someone out there.
I have a pen and book close to my bed every night because I might just wake up and start writing without knowing where the inspiration is from. Being a lover of music, I can tend to brood on a particular song or instrumental for a long time and something pops up.
I write about everything and anything but the difference between me and most people is that I put the whole truth in every of my writings. Especially when writing about my personal life, I don't hide any detail because I feel that's what might bring a change to someone.
Personally, I write on anything. From my phone notepad to my book to pieces of paper (this is my favorite). I try as much as possible most times to revisit most of my old sites and resurrect every of my writings.
On days when I feel blank, I read most of my works and something new eventually drops. One thing I really hope to work on is consistency and I hope I get to achieve that before the year runs out.
I joined Hive last month this year,all thanks to @yanga for the push. I know I'm just getting started and there's a lot to learn but so far, it's been worth it. I try as much as possible to find time out of my tight schedule to create content. I really hope to post something everyday and I hope to stay consistent at this because I believe it is what drives you towards excellence and you eventually keep getting better at what you do.
Thanks for engaging my blog. I hope you learnt something.
Thank you HiveNaija for this awesome contest.
