Hello everyone!
As someone who reads an awful lot of blogs, magazines, and books in general, I’ve found that letting your readers have an idea of who you are is a great start to any story.
So I decided to take that notion to heart, and let everyone know a few facts about the person writing this blog. However that may be my inner marketing student speaking here.
Without much further ado here it goes.
I was born in Ghana.
I was partly raised in Ghana, (I have the scars on my legs to prove it too) but mostly raised in England.
I love shoes, to a point that borders near insanity. My current shoe collection nears 37 pairs.
I love knitwear, jumpers, cardigans, caftans. If its made from wool I’m all for it, also I crochet.
Books and films. I love films, and I love books. That’s it, I didn’t say all these facts would be interesting.
I have very broad taste in music, from AC/DC to ABBA. From Kirk Franklin to Fela Kuti from Afrojack to Nina Simone.
I live in Liverpool. Yes the Liverpool that gave the world the Beatles.
When I was 5 I attempted to jump from the top of my schools concrete stairs. You know to challenge myself. I failed, landed face first into the concrete landing, scraped a massive chunk of my leg. I had to pretend for a week that I wasn’t injured just to avoid embarrassment. Now that I write this I realise I could have lost a limb.
I have a stutter and attended speech therapy for years. Funnily enough a lot of people don’t realise that I have one until I tell them.
I have a fear of slugs.
I think spiders can be cute.
I have a soft spot in my heart for photography just wish I was better at it.
I love writing. Well you probably guessed that already, you know this being a blog and all.
So that’s all folks, some strange little facts about me, just so I’m not a complete stranger to you all. Some of these fact are unknown to my own family (I will let you all guess which ones they are)
I hope you stay around for more posts and musings on life.
P.s its number 1. Just kidding.
