Blogging on Facebook
After #UgBlogWeek, (still reading and re-visiting those beautiful blogs) I was asked if Facebook can be used as a blogging platform and if so how can one do it. This is what I think in regard to that. And these are not comprehensive views that are a must follow, we all blog for different reasons. So if you are going to start using Facebook as your blog platform, blog meaning; (Picks definition from Google) blog bläɡ/ noun: blog; plural noun: blogs 1. a regularly updated website or web page, typically one run by an individual or small group, that is written in an informal or conversational style. verb: blog; 3rd…

#UgBlogWeek 2: A lily does not last, despite the beauty of its flower
Bending in the warm morning sun on the veranda while scouring out the soup pan, out of no where a wave of fear crashed over the body that habits the soul. In that moment its known everything will never be the same again. In the far distance the cool wind can be heard in the trees, it announces the coming rains in the later hours of the day. A realization of what might and might not be, the truth not said but known, a hunger not felt but feed. In those moments the future is not determined but its understood. In the upper room of the house a baby cries,…

Where Are You From?
‘Where are you from?’ is a question I have answered so many times that the answers are automated in my head – auto-response doesn’t only work with emails and whatever else you use it for – I just reply in 2 seconds ‘Born and raised in Kampala, Kasubi -Lubya’. I am what many call a city born. I had never left the city until university called, and I was off to Western Uganda. Not everyone was happy with that decision. ‘How will she manage on her own?’ ‘She is so young to be going there alone’ – I had a cousin aunt who was also going to the same university…

I didn’t even copy my work… the hustle, anyway let me try to recreate it. My frist encounter with Cross-generational sex was when I was 14 years in senior two, just getting to know my body as a teenage. He was an old man 3 times older than me, he wasn’t only older than my dad but he would have been my dad’s elder brother. During my second term hoilday, ‘scrolling’ around my home streets, greeting people and saying hello to friends, I met Mr. Kisa (not…

In For These #UgBloggers7days #SMUg14 ? The Platforms You Can Use
Right now as I write this a number of people are wondering how to get involved in the #UgBloggers7days and #SMUg14 blog challenges and where to post their stories. As the introduction blog to #UgBloggers7days said, (paraphrasing) many bloggers are in slumber land and others have never even ventured in these lands, I think some people don’t know which platforms to use. How to share what they have written and where to share it. It is not as easy as most people think to write and share your feelings, thoughts and ideas to the world not forgetting challenges; it takes a lot of self esteem and realisation to be that…
