This is my Q&A to Jessica Amadi , Rivers Angels FC media officer   When did you start as the media officer to Rivers Angels F.C. ? August 28, 2015    Is there any media officer to a sporting team or organization that you admire?  That would be the former media officer of defunct Dolphins, China Acheru   The Nigerian league is the strongest womens league in C.A.F. , what should it emulate from other leagues media-wise to grow?  It should get closer to the communities and always

HELP WANTED

"No one wants to pay for distraction, but they will pay if it's packaged as help." (me)   How help is defined is tricky. It depends on the client/customer's wants. If your prospective customer wants to escape their environment, then consider if you, the independent author have the skills, resources, and experience packaged in your book to help.    If your book is the solution, then show them how it can get what they want.

Dear Readers,  I tend to enjoy reading various articles on writing , the industry, the concepts, et cetera. parallel to craft articles. These topics can be fun or engaging. As some of you know, I have a controlled electronic footprint, meaning, I don't keep old posts. This blog never had fifteen posts and never will cause I don't like ejunk. But, I realize, aside my posts to what I created and create, I need a post to just chit chat if you will. So this post will serve that function, throug

First Chapter: Bantu Waltz When the Stylus Hits the Soul

The First Chapter celebrates impactful storytelling, featuring Malaika Mutere's Bantu Waltz, where music, identity, and colonial survival intertwine through a powerful, evocative narrative.

The Great Dismal Swamp & Maroons Residents

More than one reader has contacted me asking how I managed to explicitly portray the Great Dismal Swamp in “Escape To The Maroons.” Since that was my intent, I’ll take the compliment. But after visiting the place, I don’t know that any writer can truly describe how extreme surviving there must have been. When I traveled to Virginia and spent a day touring the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, a Ranger drove me around to show me several highlights, including Lake Drummond. Today’s

Black People and The Democratic Party

Beyond the choice of whether to vote for Biden or Trump its important to put the relationship between Black people and the Democratic Party in perspective. If Biden wins there are things Black people will want. If Trump wins then for many black voters it will come down to supporting Democrats in 2028. Of course that depends on how bad four more years of Trump will be for our politics and democracy.    It's important to not deny Black agency or legitimate claims on the polity. When we d

To Be Black and Liberal

You can be black and all kinds of things politically speaking. There are Black Democrats, Nationalists, Sepratists, Marxists, Conservatives, Moderates, and Republicans. You might even call yourself a Progressive or Libertarian. But few Black people call themselves Liberal. Even if most Black people vote Democrat they would reject Liberalism.  If you're a white Liberal or Black Conservative reading this you might think I'm way off base. But being a Black Democrat is not synonymous with being a Li

Welcome to Nightmare Land: 悪夢の国にようこそ『まるで悪夢を抱いているようです』

Last night I had a dream about my uncle Bill. He was sitting with me in a kitchen area and we were talking about life. We were talking about doing exercise and running around the block for health reasons. I remembered he was a military man. We also sat down and read comic books together. He wanted me to read comics to him. I remembered in this dream, initially I didn’t feel like reading the comics but near the end of that portion of the dream, I remember I became motivated to read those comic bo

To regret past mistakes: I see this as a wrong way to reflect.

Reflection is generally considered a virtue, but Reflection when accompanied by feelings of regret I don't see it as a good thing. Because, Feelings of regret are seen as unrighteousness. Because it is considered a bad thing. The evil effects are so bad that they fall into beasts, asuras, and hungry shinigami ghosts. Yes, that is considered a spooky thing. Now then, I will talk about a good man who has no regrets. What is the correct method of reflection? To do so you must us

The Biblical and Historical Persecution of Blacks and Jews by Gentile Nations

United States politicians support Israel, financially and politically, Evangelical Christians also support Israel, for biblical reasons, yet a large percentage of white Americans and Europeans, British and others, are vehement antisemites and for whatever reason persecute Jewish people and the concept of Zionism.   This is the international atmosphere since the Holocaust (1933-1945), when Germany persecuted and committed genocide of millions of Jewish people, and the establishment of I
