Feels so good to be where I am right now with 4 completed books, another one almost done, and thinking of writing my 6th one. Being a published author is my all time writing goal. I love being a writer, but I feel a lot of the time it’s a perplexing medium between wanting to write that next book and working on getting a book published. Anyone else feel my frustration? #qotd #booksiwrote #4down #writerslife #amwriting #amediting #fictionwritersofinstagram #fictionbooks #romancebookstagram #romance #ilovebooks #ilovemybooks📚 #nevergiveuponyourdreams https://www.instagram.com/p/CV57Tn4LGkk/?utm_medium=tumblr

What do you like to do for fun? Today I had fun doodling. This doodle girl led to doodle boi and an idea for a flash fiction story. Currently the story is a fantasy urban setting, but I like the idea of them in a typical fantasy setting of sorts too. I’ll have fun seeing where these characters and story go. 🧝🧝‍♂️ #itsablueegglife #ocdrawing #sketchartwork #sketchartist #drawingforfun #storyart #storyartist #ocdrawings #fictionwriters #fictionwritersofinstagram #flashfiction #fantasycrimedrama #dndcommunity #dndcharacter #dndcharacterart #dndcharacterdesign #dndcharacters #dndart #dndbeyond #dungeonsanddragons #dungeonsanddragonsart #characterartist #characterdesign #characterart #commissionsopen #commissionswelcome #procreateart #procreatesketch #originalcharacter https://www.instagram.com/p/B-1P6S1DWg4/?igshid=8kkq67ktb84h

RAGS TO RICHES...

They owned poverty.

My family "bought" it wholesale from God or maybe from our ancestors, I cannot say precisely but we kept it in the safe like gifts from above.

The change in our status was glaring because other poorer people looked at the emelie's and say quick prayers to God; some mutter silently in quick breath to themselves ----in hushed whispers. `Not my portion'.

I grew up in one fell night to watch the toothpaste finished then we cut through it like a cadaver. Then it became so bad at some point we added salts to wash the tongue. Then bread gave way to biscuits, sugar gave way to more salt, then the table became bare. Everything's gone.

We washed the mouth with just water.

Patience, my mother would stay at a corner singing with her sonorous voice telling God that he had personally wronged her. She died from the heartache. Her love for Job in the bible seem to stem from the peculiarity of his problems and how they mirror hers. She was the only surviving child of seven and have lost three children before she gave birth to me.

Ihemjika, my father was a lazy man. He was not lazy in bed though. What he lost in height and strength he made up for it below his belt. There was this small joke by my friend the other day about my father not being able to buy a television in his hey days... And took to firing mama in the adult dance for his relaxation and when people look at me and say `that's his child' --- I fall to pieces.

But poverty is also a motivation. That brought me to the shores of Lagos... As I stepped into the house of my old friend, Chidiadi and watch him sit comfortably on his u-shaped sofas sipping that red label wine from Spain. He speaks slowly and his neck have grown fat.

He looked like a turkey.

Soft lifestyle

I knew that was me in few years. ---God punish poverty, I cursed. I must have said that aloud as he overheard me and was taken aback at the words... He covered his nose as he approached me from behind and said, Welcome to Lagos, I'll teach you how we make money here... First go and wash that body, it stinks... He slaps me playfully on my buttocks...

To be continued.
