Until her departure from this world, in 1986 V.C Andrews was a renowned author.
V.C Andrews left behind a legacy that cannot be forgotten. Her first book flowers in the attic was published in the year 1979 and ever since then she has been a blessing not only to the literary community but the rest of the world.

Not only have her books been adapted into movies, but there have also been translated into nineteen languages. 

Personally, I first fell in love with V.C Andrews in the year 2009 after reading one of her books from The Orphans Series titled Runaways. Her fantastic style of writing got me stuck to her forever. What is most fascinating to me about V.C Andrews is her ability to tell sad stories in a way that the reader is able to connect with the characters. 

Dear V.C Andrews, you inspire me to stick to my unique style always so I say thank you for being you. A genius!  You are my Author Crush this month of June.

The Forever Enthusiast; My first blog post 2019

Woke up this morning to my mom singing Dj Khaled's "Wild thoughts" in the bathroom. Not only was it hilarious, it somehow became my motivation to write my first blog post. For a long time, I pushed the idea of having my own blog because of a whole lot of irrelevant excuses. Today, I choose to emulate my "wild thoughts" bathroom singing mother for the rest of 2019. Today I choose to be an enthusiast! My mother is a far cry away from being a good singer but, she sings anyway not minding what anyone might say. A lady willing to learn new things like the latest dance moves. She also never fails to speak the truth. She is one who is never afraid to ask questions and understands that for a problem there is definitely a solution. My mom has the spirit of a hustler which makes her "the forever enthusiast. With this, I say welcome to my blog! And do stick around.

Love?

Anderson and I locked hands while we wade in the pool of water that took over dry land as a result of a downpour which lasted an hour. We seized the opportunity to leave the school premises immediately the downpour was reduced to a drizzle. We only managed to walk a few blocks away from the school premises when dark clouds began to form in the sky.  “ Let’s take cover. It’s about to pour again” I said to Anderson.  Thunderstorms let out a clear warning of the impending storm.  “ Your mom will complain. you know that ” “It’s raining!” I said, taking charge and led him to a wooden shed just by the corner . “ Calm down Anderson my mom would not come out in  the rain to find us together” “You know your mom doesn’t like me.” “My mom hates every boy that gets too close to me Anderson! I am her only child it’s normal” Anderson walked over and held my hand firmly and looked straight into my eyes. I quickly looked away smiling. “Are you cold babe?” ...

Define Genius - An Ode To The Arts

What does Genius mean to you? If you Google the term Genius here is what you will find "exceptional intellectual or creative power or other natural ability" Growing up in a typical Nigerian environment, those in the arts were not worthy of being called geniuses. And I am convinced that a lot of people still believe that if you are no scientist then one should stick to smaller terms when describing themselves.  When people speak about geniuses to aspire to they never call the names of my favourite musicians. Of course not! They are no genius they just make nice music, nothing special so they are tossed aside. The name of hair stylists, fashionistas never made the list. Of course not! they just made us pretty. I have grown up and I am redefining what genius means to me. When I say the word genius, the photo of Albert Einstein with his dishevelled grey hair no longer comes to mind. The images that pop in my head after Kanye, of course, are great writers and poets t...
