| Introduction | Things evolve. This started out as a blog about my life, then warped into a blog of my writing about the media industry and other musings (short-lived). Now it has become a way to deal with my depression and major events in my life such as breakups and girls in dresses. I am a Rhodes University journalism graduate with 10 years of media experience. This has helped me develop a strong news sense and excellent writing and editing skills. I have worked for various titles in the Avusa Group as a reporter and news editor. In 2009, I joined the 2010 FIFA World Cup Organising Committee as part of the content team (head writer for the communications team). I am currently the news editor for Meropa Communications.
