Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I was born and raised in Nigeria before coming to the U.S. I struggled with words and reading as a ten year old before I discovered my love for books and writing. But this, amongst other struggles I faced did not stop me from chasing my dreams.
After all, The only one that can kill your dreams is you. I believe dreamers can relate to my books. This is my first book among more that is to come.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Well my latest, first and only book so far is called Drops of hell. The inspiration for this book came from my unique and untraditional college experience that will be hard to believe.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not particularly but i tend to write more when i am in a bad mood. it just works out for me that way. To write i feed off negative emotions, the worse the feeling the better my writing.
