Everybody carries with them the best story they will ever know. My story is simple...... Born and bred in sunny Cape Town, South Africa. Circumstances and youthful ambition drove me to wrap my nick knacks in bubble wrap and move to not so sunny New Zealand.
I have a wife, two beautiful daughters and I ride a motorcycle. Most days I'm the coolest Dad ever.
I have a job that pays me good money, but I often wonder if it's worth spending my days at work pretending I don't want to kill myself.
I write what I feel, and whatever feels good to my soul, I vent, I show anger, frustration, especially for myself. I just quit smoking again, about three minutes ago.

I hope that my wattpadd followers will give me inspiration, ideas and guidance on my journey of new discovery. My confidence recently got knocked when I entered a writing competition, but I will remain hopelessly optimistic. Just writing this, I wish I could go on, but I think I'm out of ch
