WHAT DOES CREATIVITYXROADS MEAN?

I have lived a life of breaking rules and not accepting norms… and I want my writing to be the same. I want to mix poetry and prose and through in some sketches and use paintings for front covers. This is who I am, who we all are, unique, each seeing the world through one set of eyes and interpretating the rollercoaster of life.

I like creativity, love it. It is an outlet for my MERAKI and this is what can differentiate us, differentiate me from the thousands, millions of other authors. I’m not a policeman, doctor or soldier (though was a weekend warrior for 18 months) and so I won’t write about those things as I don’t have the knowledge or experience to scribe with authority. But I do know what living on the African continent as a freelance consultant who has brought up a family there is all about. I do know the challenges with the fairer sex and alcohol that I have been through. I do know what it means to be pushed into a corner with seemingly no way out… but finding one through embracing my SISU. It this combination which is my IKIGAI, that makes me who I am and allows me to be creative and have the thoughts that I do. It is this use of creative forms together with mixing fiction to the facts of my life that define creativityxroads.

This is a poem on the same.
