Digital media strategist and blogger, Anda Damisa, popularly known as Lazywrita, isn’t lazy after all as he successfully launched his first book ‘A Lazy Poet’ recently at the Sea Lounge, Lekki, Lagos.
The evening started with the dazzling hosts Charles Born and Simi Olusanya engaging and treating the audience to hilarious jokes.
Speaking on the book, Lazywrita said, “I always wanted to have my own book. My dream while I was growing up was to have my books in libraries and bookstores all over the country, having people know what goes through my mind and my own perspective of things”.
A major highlight from the event was when Chyddee took the audience on a journey inside the book as he read one of the poems ‘Do Not Love Me’.
There were shouts from the crowd as the message and central theme of the poem was something they could relate with, and it ultimately became the talk of the night.
The launch featured special performances from talented singer and poets such as Paul Word (Poet), Paul Rayven (Singer) and Lulu Dainty (Poet). The acts gave the audience an experience to remember as they serenaded them with great tunes and quotable lyrics that made the crowd applaud and cheer them.
Other highlights of the evening included a book review between Adesola Momoh and Lazywrita, games, music and interactive sessions.
