A good year to be a writer!


This is ending as a very good year for me as a writer.
First off, I finally got a publisher to take interest in my collection of short stories. The collection “Footsteps on the Hallway” will be published Jan-Feb 2013 by Melrose books Nigeria.
I was also able to attend the Farafina Trust Writers workshop on the third attempt and learnt so much from superb teachers.
Then there are two of my short stories appearing in two PAN-African anthologies, African Roar and AfroSF in Dec 2012.
I sure have come a long way and perhaps should start feeling like a writer. We’re moving on. J

  3. Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the pictures on this blog loading?

    I'm trying to determine if its a problem on my end or if it's the blog.
    Any feed-back would be greatly appreciated.
