In this short memoir, an African writer of Liberian extraction articulates how he came to love writing and what writing has meant to him. The journey takes him from his early childhood community, all the way through undergrad and graduate school. This work bears witness to how people are truly influenced by the quality and enormity of the early forces and voices that roamed their lives. And do you want to know why the study of imaginative literature ought to be important to national development? You will find some answers that you rarely thought existed.
