I am very impressed, I doff my hat. I write as well, but I’ve allowed laziness to set in. I am inspired to start afresh again. I got to know you through Sandi Nartey.
Cheers bros.

Great ‘NANA’ you have inspired some of us, we hope to follow the trend and lift the flag of ghanacoll high..please NANA i think i may need your help a little , kindly reach me on 0240415933. thank you and God richly Bless you.
Your writing is always such a pleasure to read, Nana. I love the way that you give the reader credit by not over explaining things, but instead offering them an informed path to follow. The more light hearted of your stories always make me smile and miss West Africa. I have a baby daughter now and hope to bring her one day 🙂
Oh thanks Jenny! You will love West Africa! Looking forward to welcoming you to my part of the world.
Nice one there.I’m a student journalist and praying to become a noble one like you.I have written stories yet to be published

Isn’t the seemingly sharp contrast simply fascinating? How a holder of Masters in Chemical Engineering turns a social and soul-touching author. Limitless possibilities indeed!….Adu-Gyamfi, The SocialCaptain. .
