I am so excited to be writing my first post here, writing is such an amazing way to share my thoughts and ideas plus an opportunity to be me, do me, and be heard. I don't see a better way to express myself to the fullest.
Am genuinely grateful to my very good friend @blacktarri who invited me to this platform and I feel I will have a fantastic experience here as I will like to explore while having the best moment of my life writing.
My name is Aforkoghene Kelvin Oghenovie from Delta state Nigeria. I am a writer, storyteller, Digital Entrepreneur, and graphics designer!

The majority of my writings are frictional which makes me a storyteller, I have been telling stories since I could remember myself but never thought it to be something worth doing, at a point I saw it to be a child's play which made me venture into other lines of skills but unfortunately, it was hard to be successful in them. It wasn't until 2 years ago I discovered I had been chasing shadows all the years I was trying to make something out of my life. Writing and telling stories isn't just what I do it is part of who I am, it is part of my purpose and one of the things that makes meaning not just to me but to those around me.!
Apart from being a writer, I am a family person, although still single and not yet a father, I love my family and develop a great interest in family affairs (but detest tribalism and hearse traditions.) Most of my writings are even based on family, and though am not too into culture am of the opinion that the African family standard is bae (when it's void of unuseful cultural beliefs).
I love making friends and meeting new people but unfortunately, I am not as social as I want or which to be still I love and appreciate my circle and every friend that stays around me at every point of my life. I have amazing friends by the way.
Am a very simple person, spiritual but not religious (Am a Christian) I believe in God, morality, values, and ethics. I despise criticism and racism.
Leaving in a country like Nigeria, self-survival is always what many go for, but I believe the best way to live is to live for others. This is why my writings are anchored on selflessness and sacrifice. In my opinion "what is the use of leaving if we cant leave for others it's better to die believing in something than to measure for nothing.
It will be a great pleasure if I could meet people of like minds here, people I can learn from are always what I look out for as a newbie, my drive for growth is out of this world so am kin on developing my self and skill set to limitless hight and I genuinely hope that I begin the entire process as soon as possible.
