A Crown Placed On My Head to End the Year

See how I have been honoured, crowning the year with a global crown in the New Vision newspaper!

On seeking insight from women leaders on how to become exceptional, they sought me out. 

10 December 2024, please get your copy.

This summarises the premise of my year, 2024. I followed the Chinese philosophy, Wu Wei, which means go with the flow. Following the direction of my purpose without struggling, I received magnificent opportunities to travel, to perform poetry, to write people's biographies, and to receive funding for a huge Babishai poetry project.

Important networks and individual connections became part of my inner flow and the year strengthened me as I continued to learn, to grow in the space prepared for me to excel and I relished it.

I relished living in such high vibration and recognising those with the same. I revelled in new , insightful and genuine mentorship that sought to uplift me and not to drown me.

It has been an incredibly notable year for me as a poet and writer and in 2025 and beyond, it is going to be a non-stop celebration upon celebration of huge global success.

Bless!

Have a great season ahead and even better 2025 and beyond.

 

The Inaugural Kampala Writes Festival

"Writers' block does not exist. It is just an excuse for laziness." Bev N N

 That is what I firmly believe and ever since that epiphany, I have reached my writing goals."

What a distinct pleasure to receive an invitation to participate in a panel discussion, at the inaugural Kampala Writes Festival.

Goretti Kyomuhendo, the curator, who runs African Writers Trust, continues to shake the writing industry by constantly ensuring literature by Ugandans is at the forefront.

Running from 6 to 8 December 2024, themed, 'Writing Our Truths,' David Kaiza, session moderator, took us through various discussions like our current projects and how they are contributing to the nation's literature. Do attend. It's free at Onomo Hotel.

The burden of shaping a nation's literature is an interesting one. I find it imposing and rather presumptuous and that writers should first explore the terrain for themselves before trying to save the world around them.
