Over and over I have tried convincing myself that there is nothing impossible as long as you believe. Like every other person who has got a dream and has to fight every factor that works against those dreams (Mine being fear, time and procrastination) I just feel this must be done.

So as I put the first ink on paper (yes I am very traditional, I like the smell of ink and crisp paper) I made up my mind I wasn’t going to go back. I mean why should I? After many years of fighting it, I finally get the chance to write. The chance to write about what I feel, how I feel and how I wish I felt. The chance to write about my opinion on work, my industry, other people’s work, other people’s industries, my country, my people, my race, and the world. My thoughts seem like a lot, too hard to keep track of, I guess it is a result of having too many dreams and doing nothing about them.

As I interview creatives, I get to know how their mind’s work, their thoughts, mode of conceptualization, their challenges in a world like ours and how they have been able to build a brand around their art. I promise not to hold back just so their stories can inspire more people.
So sit back, relax and welcome to my world…….. I Am Creative
