Same Old, Same Old
This is my attempt to break out of this terrible case of writer’s block. I have Antony Can-Tamakloe (@afadjato) and Kojo Cue’s album ‘For My Brothers’ to thank for the inspiration to write this story. For everyone who has had to stay at home a little too long, waiting for a job offer, I see you. Otu picked up his phone to call Sarah. The … Continue reading Same Old, Same Old

V is for lovers
I just had to write this one after all the different conversations I overheard today, regarding Valentine’s Day. Happy Valentine’s Day if you celebrate it, and never mind if you don’t. This is a story about love and life on Val’s Day in Accra! If you love Val’s day and you gnashed today, this story is pretty good consolation. Love always, Keni! ‘All I am … Continue reading V is for lovers
43rd January: #7daysofXmas 5
It is about that time of year again, when everyone is regretting their Christmas choices and silently praying that the minutes and seconds until January payday would magically fly past. People like Ameyaw swore that it would never happen again a year ago. That didn’t work out like he had planned. Here is to January Payday coming soon! Also, happy new year, my darlings! 💜 … Continue reading 43rd January: #7daysofXmas 5
Cooking Class 2
If you are familiar with Kenikodjo stories, you’d know that the story probably has next to nothing to do with actual cooking. Sorry if you came expecting to find recipes and video tutorials. 🤪 And since I am familiar with Kenikodjo readers, I should also probably stop writing short stories with cliffhangers because you guys always want an ending. What is the fun in that? … Continue reading Cooking Class 2

Greetings!! We are back on the #Room1045 train and yes, it feels good to be back! Last time, Nii and Joan got back on the campus romance train.

Room 1045 Ep10: Sparkle
Anybody home? 👀 I saw all the messages and emails checking in to see if I was okay because Room 1045 and the blog for that matter had no activity for the longest time. The reasons are many but I won’t bore you with them. One highlight during this absence is that I got married in August this year to CPR. Marriage is interesting and I … Continue reading Room 1045 Ep10: Sparkle
Taboo 07: Abonsam Cartoons
Pornography is not typically discussed in Ghanaian homes, neither is sex. Adults act like it doesn’t exist and their children end up discovering it on their own. For many Ghanaian boys and girls, pornography becomes their main source of ‘sex education.’ In Ghana, pornography is referred to as ‘abonsam cartoons’, loosely translated to mean ‘the devil’s cartoons.’ Guest writer Kuukua Asante tells the story of … Continue reading Taboo 07: Abonsam Cartoons
Taboo 06: Born One
Another Taboo story is on the horizon! This one is all too familiar. We tell the story of Densua, the beloved daughter of her very pious parents, who is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If you have missed a period or had to have a child out of wedlock in Ghana, you can most probably relate to this story. Happy reading! ‘Bring your prayers … Continue reading Taboo 06: Born One
