Kage
My name is Kage. Pay strict attention to what I say, because I choose my words carefully and I never repeat myself.
I have told you my name, that's the who. The where could most readily be described as the country of India. But there's a vast difference between being stuck in India and being an Indian. And I am not stuck.
The what is easy. Recently I planned and set in motion a series of careers that led me on to writing. That's also the when, now. I work in and I have a personal blog.
As for the why, beyond the obvious intellectual motivation, it's exceedingly simple: Because I can. Which only leaves us with how. And therein, as the Bard would say, lies the rub.
