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.

Curiosity

Here is a thought! Why do Nigerians love answers especially when bad things happen? In the olden days, prior to the colonial masters and even after the colonial masters came to Africa, our forefathers practised divination, poured a libation to the ancestors and tried to find out why certain predicaments befell the people. They got answers quite alright. With the witches taking the bulk of the blame or it was the god’s way of helping them find their way back and rethink their decisions. When the people left the way of their fathers after much persuasion from the foreigners. How did the foreigners do this? By demonising the way the people worshipped. So the people accepted the new religion but it did not stop their curiosity. It only doubled the need for answers. Churches sprang up in all corners. The advertisement employed by these churches pointed to solutions in a bid to attract the people. So you read Marine ...

Why The Thought Of Grooming My Natural Hair Scares Me

These past months I have been in a dilemma on what to do with my hair. I can't put an age to the first time I relaxed my hair but I have been doing it ever since then. When the wave of embracing the natural state of your hair came, I paid no mind to it. I just felt let's continue doing what we were doing before no need to change. Recently, my sister resolved to go natural. I had mixed reactions hearing this. I too had not relaxed my hair in months but I was planning to. But the thought of going natural was both appealing and scary. I watched a bunch of videos and decided to join the texlaxed hair group. But an inkling pointed out that I was not being honest with myself. I like the thought of going natural but! I have this irrational fear that the hair would turn out ugly or I will look unkempt wearing my hair in its natural state. This irrational fear spans from years of observing and being told that the best hair care is having your hair permed and people...
