Welcome to my persona.
I’m Keith and have had the online persona ‘Kewajodo’ since I joined Twitter in 2009. This blog is my non-fiction (?) writing and is based on my experiences, perspective and opinions.

Emerging from the fog

Why the blog?
It is not because I find myself deeply fascinating, don’t worry. I just wanted to use my powers of self-expression outside of a work context and while those powers still exist. You may form your own view as to their strength, or indeed, existence. Open to comments but please note that if you are a tool about it, I get to decide what stays up on here, it’s my site.
Thanks for reading.
