"In Africa, writers do not have the luxury of a 'wonderland story' only stories of where Alice wonders at her land..."
A land where we gather at moonlight not out of an incurable itch of the ears to listen to myths and legends which have been retold a thousand times over, nor of an electrifying obsession with nature, but more because electricity has gone out and refused to come home in time as is her habit.
And while the hike in oil prices paralyses the kerosene lamp for the poor and the noise making alternative electricity generating mechanism for the minor majority with an extra purchasing power for such necessities.
Our pen is our most ferocious weapon and we must apply it to paper with the decisiveness and dexterity of master strategists and war generals.
We write to put up a fight, we write to bring ills to light. Writers are Righters, and to Write is a Right
