Blogs that feature original creative writing in the form of poetry, fiction and essays.
Jackson Biko is a writer. A lifestyle writer. In his words this means “I don’t write about politics or GDP’s. I write about people, and quite often, I write about things that define people. Like pain, or hunger, or joy, or beliefs, or stir fried mutton. I love words. I live for words. The power of words is grossly understated. If God took away words from us, we would turn into empty noisy vessels. Words open us to possibilities, and to a world that we sometimes choose to ignore.”
The blog was started by 2 youngish Kenyan guys who had something to say. Then this Kenyan girl joined in and had her own stories to share. Now it’s a party of plenty.

And so blogging begun. She writes about herself. Her experiences and Junior. Till he is of cognitive internet surfing age anyway…
