  1. One thing I have noticed recently is how so many of the creative greats in western society that I enjoy (growing up as a kid in the late 90s in Nigeria and watching bootlegged VHS of animations of classical literature😊) and that laid the foundation for pop culture or that made ground breaking works in the arts, usually tend to be men who either served in the military in some capacity or were born and raised in times of war or societal transition. e.g Edgar Rice Burroughs, J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Jordan (Wheel of Time), Rudyard Kipling, Robert Louis Stevenson, Ernest Hemmingway. It just makes me think that to be a great story-teller in any capacity, one must have some form of lived experience that compels them to have a deep love for escapism and maybe be a fan or contemporary to history. If that's the case, I reckon we are gonna see a flourishing of creative writers and artists within the coming decades cause Lord knows we are living in some interesting times
