Why write, What is coming?
We have seen Marvel or DC productions and if you ever ask anyone who is your favorite superhero they would pick one from either Avengers(Marvel), The Justice League(DC) or Disney. Every Movie or Comic fan attributes it to one of these great companies and it is through years of constant quality productions and stories they have managed to carve a lasting legacy which as creators have had to leverage and get motivations from. What took 20 Years to build can be done in 10 and i aim to accomplish that with authentic fiction, adventure stories ushered by a Black African Writer in print and pictures.
Stan Lee was a visionary writer, publisher, editor leading Marvel Comics to become a multinational Corporation but most importantly he believed in the magic of words from one word to a sentence he inspired, explored the human thought, entertained and stood firm to key values of our civilization.
What now for my first short fiction named proudly Zamba: The Origins of an African Hero, a story seeking to cultivate a sense of pride, taking ownership of the stories long forgotten in the form of folktales or simply never told and bringing out a transformation culture through books and animation that highlights our values not the ones that we have inherited. It is perhaps a goal to highlight we are the architects to our fates, even where the world seems to be against us, we will tell our stories and we will produce our brands and from one we will produce the many.
Below are extracts from my upcoming short historical fiction eBook.
''to say my story is a myth or just plain lies is painfully ignorant, it is perhaps true that the difference between the two sorely depends on who you ask and what they choose to tell you. The notion history is written by the victors echoes greatly to a man of color''
&
''Do you know before traditional doctors were largely shunned upon and seen as the origin of witchcraft they were deeply revered for their mastery of elements? Before our different but one language were seen as lesser than the rest, before continuous self-harm of my people, African identity was majestic and proud''
