Some succeed while others drown in misery. Many never give up until they see the dawn of day.<\/p>\n<p>In this issue, we feature some inspirational stories that will add some zest to your success seeking endeavours. We have interviews with some poets who are doing marvellous things in the sector and we look at a Kenyan poet who left his well paying job as a banker to realise his poetry dream.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, we also have some great and amazing poems.
