Hello and a warm welcome to the show, in today's episode I am taking you through a monologue of the reason as to why I decided to become a writer while still in University. It is a journey that where I shall discuss with you and be intimate with into trying to bringing sense to this journey I am on to you. I would appreciate it you take the time to acknowledge this aspect I am about to submit here and forthwith. As you are listening there are two ajar anecdotes that I am weaving in this episode and these are the obvious anecdote and the subtle anecdote. The obvious anecdote is you listening and envisioning the journey and the subtle anecdote is the one being carried out by my voice. Thank you so much for taking the time to listen, I am still getting my Podcast voice, do pardon the clunky, delivery, once again thank you for your support and time.
I carry on from where I left off in exploring the reasons behind why I write, It is an exploration into the mind of this shell I am now a part of "Being a writer". I am taking you on a descriptive monologue of a journey as you and I figure out the reasons why I decided to take a pen and a paper. Therefore this episode carries two narratives the facial frontal narrative that you can engage feel and appreciate and the underlying narrative in which you cannot feel or touch yet you may and can feel the aura woven behind the episode.
In this episode i am laying the ground work, setting up the nature, tone and focus of the podcast.
In this episode i am learning to understand my podcast voice, and i can work around the platform.
It is a learning curve in understanding the podcast world.
