Broken Wrist

The Broken Wrist is an unflinching look at the life of a man who refused to be defined by the labels placed upon him. If there is one lie you must never believe, it is that you are not good enough or that you are "e;slow"e; because you learn differently.​The story begins with the desperate escapes of a child in Missionvale—moments of profound embarrassment and "e;ducking and diving"e; the traditional educational system just to survive the classroom. This path led to a "e;special school"e; environment, where the author traded standard academics for the practical grit of sheetmetal work and carpentry. But beneath the manual labor and the struggle of a system that didn't know where to put him, a "e;Quantum Brain"e; was at work.​This memoir tracks the evolution from a misunderstood student in the Eastern Cape to a deep-thinking writer and entrepreneur. It explores the transition from the physical strength required in roofing and trade to the mental strength required to self-publish a life's worth of philosophy. It is a story for the underdogs, the technical minds, and anyone who has ever been told they don't fit in. It is proof that a "e;special"e; education can lead to an extraordinary perspective on the world.
