Takunda Edward Gudo is a poet, songwriter and short story writer. He was born in a family of three kids (all boys) and he’s the eldest. He loves art so much, especially Literature in English and this is what inspired him to be a writer. In high school he started writing poetry and prose just for fun, then he realised that it was actually his calling. He never stopped since.

But, up to this day (he always laughs about it) his parents do not know that he almost failed his finals because he would be caught up with writing poetry and short stories during the time of study. Although it seems preposterous, he still had to do what he knew best. His greatest wish right now is to see every African child being able to read and write so that communities wave goodbye to hereditary ignorance.

As long as his mind does not run out of ideas, Takunda Edward Gudo’s ink will just keep on writing and writing!!! More and more poetry and prose.
