About the author

Born in Nigeria, raised between Port Harcourt, the United Kingdom and the U.S, Kio took up a lot of interests growing up. During the childhood of his vastly multicultural upbringing, he trained in the Arts, principally in Painting and the Piano. During his adolescence, whilst excelling in his artistic and musical techniques, he also gravitated towards sporting interests, including a distinct thrill for Track & Field, Basketball, Football and Polo.

"It’s funny, as a teenager I remember being interested in everything outside the typical classroom; I loved sports, I played any Sport. I loved Music. I loved my art classes, and Painting. I believe my earliest memories as a child is of using crayons, water colours and colouring pencils in colouring books my mother bought me. It was also so much fun learning to play a new instrument. But I found school itself quite boring, as it never seemed challenging to me; it wasn’t unless I was playing a sport, painting, performing with my school band, or simply expressing myself in some way that I was truly challenged."

It wasn’t until his move to the United Kingdom for his B.A and MSc degrees that he took a real interest in being in front of camera, as a Model and Actor. Subsequently, he discovered Philosophy; he explains that not the study of Philosophy, but the experience of Philosophy is what led him to it.

“Of course, one can study Philosophy but that is not what makes a Philosopher. The beauty of Philosophy, from my point of view, is in ones experience of it: to have a hypothesis on life, to take action by experimenting with one’s own life, then to observe natural results and report back in beautiful honesty; to experience the beautiful truths of absolute freedom, the processes of Nature - God itself; to understand, and to express all that beauty back to the world... I now see why it was always the path I was meant to be brave enough to take.”

As an Author, Artist, and Entertainer; Briggs recognises himself as a Philosopher firstly, stating that he is the evolution of a Philosophy of life, and that all else he continues to achieve within Arts & Entertainment is as a result of the Philosophy - “Living Free”.

"Just Past the Storm" is a pocket book, and my forthcoming project. In this pocket book, I use story telling illustrations and analogies to contextualize, and visualise, my experience of life during the early days through "the storm". Written in the style of 36 short letters of inspiration, it is a 20,000 words documentation of my experiences during those early stages. It was during these early days that I first truly recorded, and understood, the influence of thoughts to perspective, and inevitably to our actions and results. And it is my intention that those who experience this pocket book, will find great inspiration - to always take a leap of faith in their lives. For the reader to truly connect these illustrations and expressions of the rollercoaster experiences of life, to their own personal experiences of a journey to achieving a goal/dream.

This pre-order of "Just Past the Storm", which accompanies a copy of "Understanding God", is a very exclusive offer; as "Just Past the Storm" will not be available until a much later on release date, however, these first 10 pre-orders will be available to their owners before it is available to others.
