I Just Published A Novel
« on: March 26, 2008, 12:51 PM »

I just wrote a novel 'Shambles of a Predicament' that has a lot to do with HIV and homosexuality in Nigeria,  I self published it earlier this month and I am kind of self-promoting it. I need tips on how to carry on,  On my part, I have entered for the NLNG prize for literature this year; , checkout my website: www.spectaclebooks.110mb.com.

Congratulationsgetting published is a big accomplishment. Unfortunately, you will have a hard trying to market this type of subject matter to Nigerians. We just don't "roll like that".

One rule both writing and marketing have in commonKNOW YOUR AUDIENCE.

Wish you nothing but the best.
