Tailed - A Novel
« on: June 06, 2007, 06:21 PM »

Here's a sample chapter of my first book - TAILED. It's the story of a family of five helplessly bound by the power of an African Curse.

I was greatly inspired by feedback/review of the sample chapter of my other book - THE AIREGINAN DREAM. I hope you will let me have your comments on this one too!

I read Tailed and thoroughly identify with the author's thought. I even reviewed it and my colleagues kept asking for copies. Dupe Olorunjo is a superb writer. I had always thought you needed to be a journalist or read English to write well but Dupe changed that. It amazes me how she makes out her time to write despite being a banker. I see her going places and only ask that she considers the non-christians in her future works .

Hiya Dupe,

Where in Lagos can one get your books i.e. The Aireginian Dream and Tailed? Can you let me know as soon as possible. Giving me the names of various bookshops in different parts of town would help greatly as I want a mate to get them for me when he is coming up from Lagos.

I also observed that your website has been down for a good number of days (I thought I could get some information off the site).

Cheers,

SMC
