Kenkey and Fish: October 2007

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Sunday, 28 October 2007. Post Card From Ghana: Culture Shock. And yet, and yet. And let's not even talk about drink-driving or policemen who ask for 'something for the family'. The delicious food I have craved for so long is still. Delicious but, spicier than I imagined and, full of carbs! Haven't people heard of the Atkins Diet? Seriously, I'm going to have to hit the gym as soon as I get back to London. Links to this post. Thursday, 25 October 2007. Confiden...

Kenkey and Fish: March 2008

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Thursday, 20 March 2008. Open Letter to Barack Obama. I've been wanting to write to you for some time now, and well,you won't know how it is but, sometimes life gets in the way of a good blogging idea. So, where was I? Ah yes. Can you believe it? People have been asking me what I think of you - in the same way they asked me about Mandela, O.J, Oprah, Mugabe and Michael Jackson - as if I have some special insight into the temperature of your soul. So back to yo...

Kenkey and Fish: Words and meanings

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2014/03/words-and-meanings.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Monday, 17 March 2014. Okay that might be an extreme and out of context analogy. But we should be asking whether the fear of being perceived as bossy is really what prevents women from asserting themselves. If that really is the case then why don't we also ban nursery rhymes that tell girls to be sugar and spice everything nice? If, as Beyonce says in the ad, this campaign is about leadership positions then shouldn't we be telling girls to emulate their bosses?

Kenkey and Fish: January 2008

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Saturday, 26 January 2008. It was a catchy crossover reggae tune that like so many of the old ones, reminds me of a particular time in the past and a particular friend. I'll bet Barrack Obama has been belting it out or at least some version of it, since his 55 percent win in South Carolina. And no doubt the pundits are going to be waxing again about what this says about African-Americans and the role of race in these elections. The Audacity of Hope. I think it...

Kenkey and Fish: April 2007

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Sunday, 22 April 2007. Have you heard of this writer? No matter though because now you have. And boy does he have a tale to tell. He is a Nigerian Jesuit priest who has sold a short story collection for one million dollars. Yeah, baby. One million. You can download one of his stories, 'An Ex-Mas Feast' from the Net. It was published in the New Yorker. Just type his name into google. Prepare to be shocked and stunned. Links to this post. Monday, 16 April 2007.

Kenkey and Fish: July 2007

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Saturday, 28 July 2007. Excuse me while I rant. Pathologically self-obsessed they never think to ask how you are doing. It's just an on-going me-fest for these folk. Well I've had it with the Permanently Aggrieved. 'Cos they suck. Big time. And to them I say: go get a life or find some place else to whinge.Rant over. Links to this post. Friday, 27 July 2007. Nicole follows Paris to jail. Did you see this headline? Prison will soon be the new black. Poet, write...

Kenkey and Fish: May 2007

http://kenkeyandfish.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html

Writing like eating and drinking and living. Sunday, 27 May 2007. Call it tacky, empty, talentless, whatever. I don't care. I'm lovin' American Idol. Big time. Give me cheesy Cowell, Paula with the hair -. That's gotta be a weave right? Give me all of that. And more. See I noticed something today, as I was watchin' and ironin'. You know, the usual Sunday afternoon stuff. I half-watched this year's winner thinking, what's so special? Green Day take the stage. They sing 'Working Class hero' and the wor...

Sam Hayes: February 2011

http://samhayes.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, 10 February 2011. Another one from Russia with love. Russian cover of TELL TALE - 'THE INFORMER'. This time it's Big Bird and a little ballet dancer but oh how I love it, despite it being rather sinister-looking! It's the cover of Tell Tale and my Russian contact (aka my Dad's wife - see my piece in the Sunday Times Style magazine this week for more on that story! And soon I'll be adding Dutch and Norwegian covers with the ink still wet on contracts for more titles sold in these countries.
