This read like my thoughts were being broadcast on the screen 🤯.
This is why I love autobiographies about random people; they're a window into the seeming ordinariness of everyday humans, the Slow TV of a life.
It also reminds me of a concept I thought up - "Sea changes": a chain of unknown events that leads to the known start of an occurrence e.g. a reed which taps a coral that breaks off and pushes a cog in an ancient underwater submarine, causing it to start up again and ultimately leading to the discovery of Atlantis or something.
Thank you always for answering the call to writing, Opsy and for bringing your spiciness to the bread of the everyday (🤭).
I just realized that from the point of view or an observer, me reading this blog post on my bed, in the dark, at quarter past 2am, somewhere in Lagos can be seen as mundane. Great writing as always Ope.

Sea Changes sounds so interesting. I love this idea. Thank you so much for reaching as always.
My pleasure, as always.
We should talk about Sea Changes some more, so that when you get that book deal and it's inside, my shoulders will not come down 😌.

Please could you recommend more writing podcasts? I'm currently in need of them.
