PulpFactionClub + Wordsmithy Media + Debonair Present:

Book ‘n’ Gauge VI: Many Worlds of Two Writers



The sixth edition of Book n Gauge is scheduled to hold on November 26, 2011 @ Debonair Bookstore, 294, Herbert Macaulay Way, Sabo, Yaba. 2pm - 5pm. In the month of November, we would be hosting you to two amazing writers, three performers and it’s going to be a blast. We would go on a trip to the many worlds of these writers, the world of their books, their writing world, the human world and of course, the other worlds that they are a part, the worlds that you do not read about behind a novel.

Ayodele Arigbabu
Writer, Publisher, Architect and businessman, Ayo is always looking for ways to express his creativity. On these many lives, Ayo says “I’m always amazed to find myself to be the only one who is not confused about my ability to wear many hats. I don’t really enjoy introducing myself to people I’m meeting for the first time in public, because when they ask: “so what do you do?” and I get started, the look of consternation on their faces makes me want to talk about something else. I’ve learnt not to get worried anymore about other people being worried about me going all out, in my own little way, to live my life to the hilt. I’m more worried now that so many people out there are living such plain linear lives….sheesh! They don’t know what they’re missing!”

Ebi Akpeti
Ebi Akpeti is the author of The Perfect Church which was adapted for the big screen and television by Wale Adenuga Productions; it features Nollywood stars starring Ramsey Noah, Olu Jacobs and Funke Akindele. For her journalism, she has won awards lik the Capital Market Reporter of the year by the prestigious Nigerian Media Merit Award NMMA Award (NMMA) for her story "Trigger for Fraud."

Ebi decided she had a thing for fiction and decided to put pen to paper and see what pans out of it. She released Growing Pains in 2006 and later on, she wrote and a book titled Castrated, which was used by the inaugural class of the Masters Students of Pan African University Lagos for their Creative Writing course.  This contributor to several magazines is passionate about writing. She is currently working on a new novel, For the Sake of Peremoboere and a screen play, God has a Sense of Humour

Thank God for that miracle working God of wonders, we have finally come into our own, the stone the builders rejected yesteryears have now become the chief cornerstone

This calls for some zobo and shekpe on the rocks hehehe, *hic*,

@Busybody, Lol

What's the cost. It's not far from my place.

I usually use a library around there, so coming to the venue will be easier!

I am looking forward to this event. I am a member of the club and the monthly book reading of pulpfaction club is one sure worthwhile event for me. Lots of riveting discussions and beautiful music too. lest I forget, it is a hub for the smart sets. You dont want to miss this one.

See confession and people now coming outta the woodworks to claim they live in yabaleft

Anyway who no like to be associated with better things, welcome aboard comrade, there is always room for one more at yabaleft

Off to go and warn the other yabaleft bingoes that I saw Donpuzo first and to back off my property I can't believe my luck, first we get our own celebrity book reading club then in waltzed my own knight in shining armour Don D'donpuzo to whisk me off my feet into the sunset Good thing too that the OP Jarus works for CNN, it would be a good idea if they cover me and my Don's upcoming wedding  

@Busybody,

I stay at Yabaright. Though it's cool staying in yaba! I am proud of the vicinity, though at a point the rate of insane people was becoming alarming.

Been a while i visited the library at mainland!

Though set for them!

Please let's not scare potential guests o. There wont be any visit from the denizens of the famous assylum. It is a celebration of literary arts and opportunity to network.The event has been on for six straight months and it is waxing stronger.

See you on saturday.

Common guys, don't be shy or ashamed to stand up and be counted, and rep where you are from to the fullest

@omotisa. Unfortunately for you, i'm gonna be there.

awww,wish i could be there.schedules too tight for that day.

Good. Ayo just had a successful coordination of the 13th Lagos Book and Art Festival (LABAF).

Damn cool! I shall be there. No story

Una no wan talk how much
