Still At It

My name is Oluwaseyi Ademola Akinruntan.

Most of my connections and friends in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Australia call me "Olu" or "Mr. O".

I am 50 years old and, a father of four wonderful and delightful kids.

My eldest child, a daughter, just gained admission into the university to study Microbiology this year and, she just returned with a GPA of 3.95.

I have a very active mind. I always have. What stimulates and excites me the most are intellectual activities and pursuits. I spend practically all of my waking time at the PC working, researching the features of new software and mastering their use and those that I use in my workflow as a graphic and web designer, writer, Microsoft Office advanced user of close to 30 years and trainer providing computer training via Zoom to trainees located in El Paso, Texas and so on.

I was going to study medicine when I was in high school until I had my first experience with a computer when a computer department was set up in my school and, being one of the top students, I was made the coordinator.

I have never looked back since nor regretted it. Computing has brought me so many opportunities that, I truly cannot imagine my life without working with computers.

I am officially retired but, I am still very active both mentally and physically. I am blessed with a superb physical constitution probably thanks to genetics.

I also read very widely when I was younger and still do whenever I can, having read most of the English classics including Charles Dickens, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, William Shakespeare and, many later authors including John Grisham, Arthur Hailey, Peter Danielson, V. C. Andrews, James Hadley Chase, Emily Brontë, Charlotte Brontë, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Washington Irving and, so, so many others.

If you want someone gifted with the ability to be precise in communication, who makes sure that the intended message is captured with the highest level of fidelity to the idea then, I am your man.

I possess a considerable vocabulary and, a fast and consummate ability to find just the perfect word or words to use in every situation and so, could be a perfect speechwriter for instance.

I would be a valuable personal or executive assistant also if handling correspondence and other forms of communications matters in your line of business or profession.

As a matter of fact, that ability was a major factor in my advancement through the ranks when I was in the banking sector culminating in my de facto position as group head of brand communications for three subsidiaries of one of the most successful banks until it was acquired in 2012.

That, coupled with my uncommon passion for and mastery in computing made me able to do what others seemed unable to.

I am not surprised by it now that I'm older and I look back on those days.

I think it was inevitable.

I hated it when closing time was drawing near while others begin to put their things in order to leave once it was 4:30 PM.

I ended up learning more than most really because I just never got tired as long as I am at the PC.

I constantly downloaded tutorials from Lydia in its early days prompting my journey with Western Digital external hard drives of which I have so, so many now that have crashed, including one which contains my presence in the theatre with my extra pair of hands required to help deliver him because the boy decided to come when one of the nurses had gone out to get an item that was needed. It was only the matron and I who were there when he came.

My designs are authentic because I was first and foremost an artist before I became a graphic designer.

If you want the most original, memorable and visually persuasive graphic designs, I am your man. You don't have to take my word for it though, kindly spare the time to take a look at some of my work for connections, friends and clients from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Australia to see if you agree at - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BLPhgWKEghEJXVKPkwFWCnZR56g088Pw?usp=drive_link

Some of the sites that I built:

https://www.r-e-b-c-inc.com - for a consulting firm in Roseville, California, United States. I also wrote two of the blog articles on the site. https://www.unicityautomation.com - for an access control firm in Nigeria https://www.dallashomesintl.com - for a real estate firm in Nigeria

When it comes to graphic and web design, writing articles or reports, working with Microsoft Office, researching online, providing graphic and web design and Microsoft Office training as individual services or, collectively as a remote administrative, executive, personal or virtual assistant, I am convinced that, no one can bring greater value onboard any business or professional operation than I can.

When all of the above is coupled with my calm ability to approach challenges, and the constant pursuit of more effective and automated ways to execute tasks to eliminate or reduce the potential for errors, that maturity which I am convinced comes with age and, that experience of having worked with a diverse range of people from across the world for close to three decades, I am more likely to have a stronger sense of commitment and loyalty.

My aim is to have more value than is needed for a role I am compensated for based on the capacity of the organization and not necessarily what my contribution is worth because no one truly can measure how much their contribution is worth. And, I don't want to compete for higher-level opportunities such as those of a brand manager, artistic director and so on and then have to deal with the intense social and political dynamics such positions tend to involve.

It's not about the income as much as my capability being underutilized. Too much time on my hands in this day and age when so, so much is going on that requires my specific skill set makes me feel unfulfilled.

My passion can partly be seen from how much I've invested in the related tools and equipment for the roles that I seek. I am as equipped as anyone anywhere in the world to serve remotely with world-class Internet access solutions, an HP ZBook Firefly G7 workstation with Intel Corei7 and 32GB RAM and a multi-monitor setup of three 24-inch Dell monitors including the workstation display which greatly increases productivity across my workflows.

And, it has always helped me to get ahead throughout my life. I always end up being the favourite in every situation because I give of myself without stinting.

I have references in the United States with whom I've worked for years on LinkedIn who are willing to vouch for my integrity as a person, my competence and my relentless dedication to achieving set outcomes within set deadlines and using assigned resources.

If you require a brilliant and committed person to be on your team, do kindly send me a mail at seyifulfilled@gmail.com or, give me a call at +234 905 743 7659. WhatsApp too works with the same number.

If you don't but, know someone who does, kindly recommend me. I'd be grateful indeed. I'm open to a Zoom chat at any time for anyone to feel my energy as a potential team member.

I wish you even more stellar success always.

Thank you for your time.

If you love #FleetwoodMac “Gypsy” and all those heavenly female singers from the 70’s you’d simply adore The Kim White Band- Shelter. If you want real music that speaks to you with the tone of the voice and not just the lyrics. Not all the harmful dangerous noise that they call music these days. If you have a soul and, what goes into that soul matters to you then, listen to this. At least, for a few minutes, you’d get that feeling of when the world made sense and, seemed safe and doesn’t seem to have gone mad as it all seems now. It’s beautiful escape. It stays with you. #morningfresh - The Kim White Band- Shelter

Writing Scenes Out of Order

Gonna be honest with y'all, I have never ever written a story completely in order. I am actually incapable of doing that. Even though I write the most detailed outlines known to man before I even think about writing, I still can’t write the scenes in order. I swear by this because I sincerely believe that writing scenes out of order increases my productivity which I’ll talk about later. Even if you haven’t done this before, I recommend everyone try it at least once, so without further ado, here are a few reasons that you should write your stories out of order. 

You Can Write The Ending First

When you write your scenes in order, generally that means that you’re going to write the ending last. In my experience, the ending is one of the most important things in your story, so I recommend that even if you write everything else in order, always write the ending first. Writing the ending first always gives you a light at the end of the tunnel. It gives you a destination to eventually reach. Even when you feel like your story is going absolutely nowhere, it allows you to go back and see what you want the ending to look like from the beginning which should help your motivation and hopefully lessen that pesky writer’s block!

Oh, Those Continuity Issues 

Continuity issues are the absolute worst. I can never seem to remember the way that I described stuff at the end of the book when I’m writing everything back at the beginning. One thing that does get frustrating about writing scenes out of order, is keeping up with continuity like what season it is, what characters have already met, and even who is alive and dead at certain points. Writing scenes in order eliminates these issues because you are writing everything in the order that it happens. I would most definitely recommend keeping an outline or at least a sheet of notes when you’re writing scenes out of order, so that you can keep yourself organized and lessen the continuity issues that you have to go back and fix in later drafts!

You Can Follow Your Inspiration

I plot every scene out extensively, but if I do have an idea for a scene, I immediately write it down and worry about where it fits into the story later. For me, this increases my motivation because at least I’m writing something even if it wasn’t in my original outline. Every story has scenes that aren’t the most interesting, and as writers, those can be the hardest scenes to write. Especially if you write all of the interesting scenes first, you won’t have anything to look forward to when you’re struggling through the more transitional parts of the story. This is just my opinion, but whenever I write in chronological order, my motivation goes down a lot. I like writing whatever scenes I want to write instead of writing what comes next in the story. Knowing that I can write whatever scene I want to next makes me super excited about writing

Sprinkle In That Foreshadowing

Y’all know how much I love me some well done foreshadowing. It’s simply one of the best things about reading and writing. But, writing foreshadowing can be really complicated if you aren’t sure how the story ends or even how the foreshadowing will fit into the story later. Because I normally write the ending scenes first, when I finally get around to writing the beginning scenes, I can easily sprinkle in little bits of foreshadowing or allusions to later scenes. It also helps me not overly foreshadow anything because I can go to the end and make sure I’m not doing too much.

tips for setting the scene

it’s easy to get caught up in dialogue or a character’s internal dialogue and forget altogether that they, too, exist in their own physical world. as authors, it’s primarily our job to convey the exact amount of information: the reader is on a need to know basis, but they also need to know enough to draw their own conclusions. i’ll admit, it’s a difficult task, but here are some tips to help set a scene:

- imagine the world from the eyes of your character: how do they see things? do they see the big picture first or are they drawn to smaller details that others don’t often notice? what’s pulling their attention away from the action or their own thoughts?

- breathe life into your scenes: i don’t mean the english teacher’s equivalent of “the curtains were blue means that the character is sad.” i’m talking about the blue filter in Twilight that conveys the “constant cover of clouds and rain” and the shift from the Arizona desert to the cool Pacific Northwest. think about all the small details that convey information about a scene and allow the readers to make inferences. if the character walks along a street and the yards shift from overgrown hedges with frayed yard chairs and a birdbath containing a mini swamp to yards with freshly cut grass with white picket fences and ornate wreathes hanging on the doors, you’re providing all of the details for readers to make an inference. context is needed, too, but that will be provided in the whole of your novel or short story. don’t be afraid to provide details and use figurative language.

- spread out your details: did you feel bombarded in the last tip? i provided a lot of details quickly, all at once, without spreading them between action, dialogue, or internal dialogue. i’m not going to stop you from being the next J.R.R. Tolkien if that’s how you like to write, but try not to overwhelm the reader with details all at once. it will feel more natural if you spread things out and allow the reader to feel as if they, too, are with the character in their environment. this is more of a stylistic tip, so take it with a grain of salt and think about what will work best for your novel. always go back to that and to what your character is seeing. how is this all playing out for them? how can you put feeling into the scene?

- place your characters within the scene: where are they in their environment? how are they interacting with the people or objects in it? what do they think about these things? you don’t need to tell the reader everything your character does, but provide enough information so that we don’t get lost in their movement or stagnation. it helps to have someone else read your work if you’re struggling with this part. if they’re lost as to where the character is or what they’re doing, chances are a good portion of your readers will be confused, too. check out your prepositions. are there too many? too few? use them, but don’t abuse them.

happy writing! if you need help setting a scene or have any questions, our ask box is always open!
