When I wrote the last episode of my first serial, The
Confession after a 10-week period, I decided to embark on a short break
which took longer than originally expected. This break was to afford me the
opportunity to regain the mental strength that was drained from writing that
serial. Believe me or not, each episode was a laborious, quasi-tortuous moment
for me as it was an unfamiliar literary territory for me – out of my comfort
zone. And in a manner akin to how Bishop Dag Heward-Mills established a ‘new
church’ and called it First Love Chapel in Legon (ostensibly to return to where
it all begun), I also, reverted to my comfort zone, and shared with you Worthy
Gambles. Unfortunately, the vicissitudes of life incapacitated my
literary faculties and I went AWOL. But hopefully, I am back at post now and
ready to share with you some nuggets I picked up whilst on my long sabbatical.
