Article writing is an art where you convey a particular message via words, ensuring that your target audience stay glued to your content up to the tee. It takes time, energy and perseverance to be a proficient article writer, the fundamentals requiring you to be able to clearly outline the thought process behind the particular topic that you are writing about. Writing comes with creativity, where you are able to manipulate or use various words to give voice or audibility to a certain topic that you want to write about hence it is a form of expression that vividly entails the thoughts of a writer and how cleverly they justify that through proper research and evaluation. (DeLyser & Hawkins, 2013)

Everything has a systematic process it goes through in order to attain the end result, the same case goes for article writing. It starts with drafting down a mind map and gathering the necessary resources to bring your article to fruition. The process may seem complex at first but once you keep on practising, you’ll eventually get the hang of it, as they say, practice makes perfect. There are factors to put into consideration when coming up with an article, one of them includes readability; this is the process that indicates how well your audience can easily go through your article and understand it or how well they can easily digest the message that is being delivered. Another factor which might seem unorthodox is, enjoy yourself as you write your article. Research indicates that a happy writer easily converts a dull audience to be much more enthusiastic.

The Super X Headphones: Say YES to Good Quality Audio

The Super X Headphones: Say YES to Good Quality Audio.     “Don’t stop just like that, mm mm, work it out mm mm...” these are the lyrics I was recently listening to with the latest edition of the (Super X) headphones. You see, music has the power to brighten your mood after a stressful event and it has proven to be quite an effective stress reliever from time to time and I’m pretty sure you will agree with me on this because who doesn’t listen to music right? I believe that each and every one of you is a musician at some point and your bathrooms are your own personal recording studios while taking a shower. Don’t be embarrassed about it, I do that too more times than I can count and I see myself on the road to winning a Grammy one of these fine days. If only wishes were horses. When it comes to music, the quality of the audio you are listening to matters a lot. The cords should hit straight to the core because that is what you deserve. Listening to bad audio can easily...

My First Penniless Flight to S. Korea (2023)   I remember it vividly like it was yesterday. It was a friday morning, the 14th of July 2023. I had sat in the garden of our church compound together with my two sisters, Favour and Celine. Everyone else had received their passports expect Favour, Jackline and I hence we had gone to the garden to console ourselves and encourage each other. I remember feeling devastated and wondering why this was happening to me and why had God allowed this incident to transpire.    Around 10am, our dance team leader, Park Micah, who had gone to collect the passports, called from the immigration offices and informed us that both Favour and Jackline's passports had been issued except mine. There had been a list that only included 15 members yet we were 16 so that meant that I was the one who was going to be left behind. The moment I thought about being left behind, I became depressed. How can God allow this? Does He hate me this much? Apparently...
