ANNOUNCEMENT: In Regards to this -> https://www.nairaland.com/1180563/poets-caf%C3%A9-chat-room/8#16063465 An adjustment has been made on the structure. There is no need for the poets to design anything for the competition, they are to concentrate on writing the poems. I would assign one designer to each poetry writer. I am doing everything possible to get IT guys, graphic designers and arts gurus from the Science & Technology section, on board for this. These designers would create the cover page for each poem. So, the competition has a twist/spice to it. Poets - would only concern themselves with writing quality poems Designers - would imagine the writers are releasing their books, and they would design a cover page for the poems. Visuals, graphics and pictures make things interesting Please, we need designers!!!! |
