Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Déthié Ndiaye Fall. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Déthié Ndiaye, appreciate you joining us today. Naming anything – including a business – is so hard. Right? What’s the story behind how you came up with the name of your brand?
The name “Plume Mauxtivée” came to me from the fact that I was at a time in my life when the roof was tipping over, I was uncertain and depressed and all that thanks to love and above all to the defects of society. This name “Mauxtivée” is derived from the word ”motivated”, meaning someone who has motivation. And all that to say that the difficult events that I had to live, the disappointments in love, the mistreatment of women among others motivates me to write.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I was born and raised in Saint-Louis, Senegal. From a very young age, I had started to get ideas for stories, imagine scenes as if to create a novel or something like that. I had been seduced by literature and everything related to this field, music, quite simply the arts. So, introverted as I am, I couldn’t ignore this passion that is writing. And it was at the age of 13 that I had something of a trigger for violence against children but also against women, and there I decided to spend most of my time on writing, on the thing that I love the most in the world.
I am a poet, writer who evolves in the creative environment. I specialize in poetry writing, proofreading and text correction. I distinguish myself from others by my creativity, the authenticity of the writings and my personality. Through my writings I help people to escape, and try to heal the wounds that overwhelm them. I also try to ensure that he sees himself in everything I do, that is to say identify himself in all my works.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
The most gratifying aspect is the passion that feeds our works, this passion that makes us write, makes us imagine and makes us create our own universe. This passion for me is irreplaceable and remains for me the most rewarding aspect. Then comes the support of people who help us from near and far. This support that boosts us every day that God does, that gives us the strength to continue, to believe in what we do and to give the maximum of ourselves. This too represents something gratifying for me.
What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
Yes my first objective is to try to heal myself, to escape myself and then if I can also for others. Then, with my writings, I want to give hope to people who no longer believe in love, in sharing, in mutual aid and above all in respect for others. Also make people understand that love is the basis of everything and without love we would not have peace and who says lack of peace says hostilities.
