Born in a remotest village of Mwingi District, Kitui County, I was a pioneer at my primary school where we had only three teachers, but still made it to a good high school, and have worked my way up to university.

As a child, I passionately loved molding, making clay bulls and elephants and cars and all. Although I had an acute eye allergic disease (that I was often beaten whenever they found me handling clay, I couldn't give up until one day I modeled a a bird, and they'd say, "Hey, look at this one by Willy. It seems to fly, doesn't it?"

Well, I am now a 3rd Year B.A degree student of Literature and Communications at the University of Nairobi.

I am a writer. I do poems (available on www.poemhunter.com) and other literary opuses. And as a budding writer, i want to make it my main life agenda to write, so I may leave for this world something to keep them busy and enlighten generations after I am no more.

What I like about myself is that I have known the meaning of rising beyond self, and knowing that this life, after all, is shared. Our past stories may be different, but our destiny is shared, more so for those of us who believe in honesty and hard work, responsibility and the need to hold each others hand.

And let me state, without shame, that above all I believe in the Eternal Patron of Order.

As a young man of the day and age, I have tried to acquaint myself with the Internet quite much.

This is how I learned about iWriter, an online platform where I, and many other people round the world, get writing jobs (mostly blog type and other writing projects) from, write the projects,and if they are good enough, get paid. I am an iWriter and I recently became an elite type writer, the second best level.

So I am an online freelancer. I write for clients, get paid weekly, and use the proceeds for my upkeep in Nairobi, daily shuttling to college and back to house plus other college expenditures, as well as supporting my mum and younger siblings whenever need strikes.

I spend about 250 KES ($2.5) daily on cyber cafe charges, and earn 700 KES ($7) or less, the cost not deducted. If I had my own computer, I would be spending only 50 KES ($0.5) for 24 hours unlimited broadband connection. Now that is cost reduced significantly. it is improvement. And that's why I was happy to be introduced to Zidisha and apply for a loan. i want to buy my own computer.

I will use the first loan to purchase a CPU, continue working from cyber for about a month, repay the loan, then apply for a successive loan to buy everything I need to run a computer from my house-- TFT, cables, broadband modem, everything. That will be a great leap toward better life.

It will also help me in writing my other literary works, like poems and such, in my studies, and that I will have better time and convenience working from home when I am not attending classes, I will raise enough money to repay the loans, and even pay for my tuition fee.

Thank you to you all of Zidisha.

Hello Lenders,

This is my second time to ask for you for support through a loan. I am grateful you funded me the first time, and I was able to purchase my own computer, better my online job, and repay on time. My repayment rate is 100%.

This round, however, I ask for your support to pay my college fee balance, 22,000 KES (about $220).

As I mentioned on my profile, I am a student at the University of Nairobi, taking Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Communications. I just started the first semester of my final year, and the savings I had for the fee fell short of 22,000 KES.

I kindly request you to be of help to me so I won't be left out. Fund me, please. I will be ever so grateful, and stay on my promise to pay every dime timely.

My warmest regards,

Willy Munyoki
