One of my favorite African writers in Chinua Achebe, his book Things Fall Apart follows the story of Okonkwo.

Can you name five things you are known for? How are you known? Do you want a lot of people to know who you are? Who do you want to know about you? What are you currently known for versus what do you want to be known for? Do they match? The Bible gives accounts […]
