Hey. I'm an aspiring writer from southern Africa for those of you who aren't in the loop, and I love books. So I decided to write one... Which is why I’m here (But we're all here for the same reason, right???)

The Literary Side

Review Policy: I think it prudent to mention my review policy. I aim to give constructive reviews that will aim to help people to write better. So, if I say something in a review that you don’t like.. Deal with it. If I like something, I’ll tell you. If not, I’ll tell you anyways. And if you don’t want the help, then don’t come here…Finally, if you review something of mine, I will review something of yours. Hopefully, this will mean we can all improve our writing talents.

My Writing

Saving the best for last (I hope???)… Basically I like to write about‘dark things’ (there’s not much fun in writing about the good side of life, although it comes out of me from time to time…) and so most of my writing deals with ‘heavy’ issues… Enjoy morbidity!!! By the way, I am sick and tired of reading all of this formal poetry in class, with pretty little stanzas and nice rhyme schemes. I refuse to write poems which stick to the norm, so don’t expect the above in my poetry; I am primarily a free verse writer.

By the way, if you do not understand any aspect of my writing, would like to discuss a review I’ve
left you, or simply wish to discuss the merits of eggs, mushrooms, and Pecorino cheese, feel free to email…

Well anywayz, I'll keep y'all updated as da time goes by...
