NAIROBI: One of the things that make me really proud to be Kenyan is our ability to deal with demons of self-doubt and display our resilience as we find solutions to problems bedeviling us. But we have shot ourselves in the foot once too often. That is why I understand Dominic Mumo’s ([email protected]) concerns on lack of places near him, to learn script writing.
On the brighter side though, Kenyans are not only hardworking but innovative and hardly ever say die in face of challenges. Three quarters of Kenyan writers are self-taught. The brilliance displayed even on the international stage is the fruit of hard work and being on the lookout for opportunities to learn.
