Is your pen name your legal name? If no, then how did you make up one?

It is my legal name.

How many books have you published till date?

Six. I'm such a lazy writer.

What are your future projects?

I'm planning on going horror. Taking a break from my normal mystery and thriller seems adventurous. The name is 'Nigerian horror stories', which consists of a collection of real-life scary stories that happens in Nigeria.

What is writing to you?

Writing is my home, my life, my friend, my master and my enemy. Writing is everything to me. It's literally what I think about first thing in the morning.

Is being an author, your long time dream or a hidden passion you found out later?

Definitely a hidden passion. I've always written for the fun of it but now I realize I want to write every day of my life. Cliche, I know.

What genre books you like to work on?

Romance, Chicklit and Thrillers.

If we challenge you to write a book of another genre we suggest, then would you take it up?

Um, I wouldn't. I know I won't have the time.

Writing is a reality that paints a beautiful fantasy. What do you think are the charms of writing fiction/non fictional books?

Charms? Hmm, being able to imagine. And not just imagine but also having the ability to put your imagination into words and finding the true words to express yourself.

I can twist my tongue. I heard a lot of people can't do that.

Who is your first celebrity crush?

Neymar Jnr.

What is the most embarrassing situation that you have ever been through?

I will never tell.

One craziest thing you have ever done?

Haha, this one is actually funny. I willingly climbed a tall building(over 20 feet) and I'm scared of heights. I cried so much that day because I had to come down by myself. It was actually a game. I'll never do it again. Ever.

There are many authors who just started their journey and many readers who want to write but has no courage to do so. Please give them a tip and a word of encouragement.

I would say as many other writers would say; write. You never know where one word can take you to. Just write it. Have a lot(when I say a lot, I mean a lot) of role models. Read their works and try to be like them and if you don't succeed, don't look down on yourself because that's where the real magic is. You became you when you can't be someone else. You won't have a choice because you are the best thing in your world. So, read, write, read and repeat.

Last but not the least, have you ever dreamt of writing your own comic?

Haha, no.
